It’s likely those little blue verified check marks next to a user’s name are table stakes just to be considered for the ad-free experience.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3026339/software-social/twitters-stopped-showing-ads-to-its-favorite-users.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article> Source: Twitter's stopped showing ads to its favorite users (http://www.macworld.com/article/3026339/software-social/twitters-stopped-showing-ads-to-its-favorite-users.html#tk.rss_all) |
