If you click the blue check, it says this person has subscribed to Twitter Blue which is a pay service.

It's the equivalent of sending a copy of FOF to Tom Brady and then proclaiming on the site he's a customer. They are also trying confuse consumers by adding the checkmark specifically to people who have been vocal about not wanting to pay for it.

Seems minor and probably no real damages you can prove. And even if you could, they're on a crash course toward bankruptcy so you'll just be in line with all the other creditors.
