Meta (Facebook) is copying Twitter Blue checkmarks

Apple's App Tracking Transparency feature, which requires user permission for tracking, has significantly reduced ad revenues from free apps that rely on personalized ads.  Meta predicts a $10B ad revenue loss due to this change. As a result, Elon Musk's solution was to sell Twitter's blue check marks at $11/month , the same Meta is going to do

A developer has Reverse-Engineered Instagram’s source code to find that Meta is preparing to offer paid Instagram and Facebook verification badges. The code explicitly refers to a “paid blue badge” and a new subscription product.

First Meta copied Telegram like channels that will be added in Instagram & Facebook, now its copying Twitter Blue subscription

The Code mentions:
“IG_NME_PAID_BLUE_BADGE_IDV”
“FB_NME_PAID_BLUE_BADGE_IDV”
IDV= ID Verification

It has started appearing for some beta users & will be called "Meta Verified".It will be available to verify profiles only, not Pages.
Just like Twitter Blue, Meta Verified will offer additional features to its Subscribers.

Microsoft announced Bing Chatbot Limits

Users have reported that Bing Chatbot has been rude, angry etc.
Sydney has threatened users that it will expose users videos and pics like mms.
It even flirted with a user & asked him to end his marriage and not only that, to some users Bing Chatbot was telling that it will show Furry Porn to users

Microsoft, in its defence, has said that the more you chat with the AI chatbot, can confuse the underlying chat model in the new Bing.
So Microsoft limited Bing chatbot and users can only ask a maximum of 5 questions per topic and 50 messages with chatbot in total per day.

“Our data has shown that the vast majority of people find the answers they’re looking for within 5 turns and that only around 1% of chat conversations have 50+ messages,” says the Bing team in a blog post.
If users hit the 5-per-session limit, Bing will prompt them to start a new topic to avoid long back-and-forth chat sessions.

OnePlus teased its OnePlus 11 Concept Phone

The 2 images of the concept phone shows a unibody glass design sitting atop “icy blue pipelines.”
OnePlus compared the pipelines to blood vessels

It’s unclear if the blue pipelines are actually lights that can be activated by the user, similar to the Nothing Phone1 OR if they’re simply static elements

The concept phone will be showing off at Mobile World Congress 2023 (MWC) event at Barcelona from 27th Feb - 2nd March
