## What Jamie wrote

I was excited that Twitter was coming out with a subscription offering, but there are two things that it should have to me and this has neither.

1. No ads for subscribers. Nothing. Period. I’m paying for the product now.
2. You should get a verified check. 

The features they are offering aren't even mildly interesting to me. Hopefully they keep iterating and getting it better. Also, only launching in Canada and Australia? I don't get that at all.
