Since these people have presumably <i>not</i> subscribed to Twitter Blue, nor actually verified their phone number, is there a case to be made that this constitutes false endorsement?

Welcome to <i>Whose Line Is It Anyway</i> [1] a show where points don&#x27;t matter, just like checkmarks given by Twitter.<p>[1]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=1gl__LLKMIs">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=1gl__LLKMIs</a>

Degrades the value of a checkmark, underscoring BlockTheBlue&#x27;s point.<p>Also, if they&#x27;re actually blocking blue checkmark accounts, how will they know?
