It is currently being rolled out for users in Australia and New Zealand on a trial basis. It will be launched in America after the test.

 

Zuckerberg wrote, this week we are launching the Meta Verified Service. This is a subscription service. In this, you will get blue tick through government identity card. This will give extra protection to the account. Apart from this, many extra features will be given to the users. This new service is meant to enhance authenticity and security.

Zuckerberg told, 'We will start this service in Australia and New Zealand this week. After this, soon it will roll out in other countries as well. For this, the user will have to pay $ 11.99 per month for the web, ie about 1000 rupees and for iOS users, $ 14.99, ie more than 1,200 rupees. Information about when this service will be implemented in India has not been revealed yet.

Hiring in Kovid, now cost cutting

Recently, Meta Platforms Inc., the parent company of Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram, had fired 11,000 of its employees. For the first time in the company's 18-year history, such a large number of employees were retrenched. The announcement to remove the employees was made by the company's CEO Mark Zuckerberg. He attributed this to the decline in revenue due to wrong decisions.

 

Mark had said, 'At the beginning of Kovid, the world rapidly went online and the increase in e-commerce increased the revenue. Many predicted that this increase would be permanent, which would continue even after the end of the pandemic. I thought the same, so I decided to increase my investment. Unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectation.

 

Not only has online commerce returned to earlier trends, but the macroeconomic downturn, competition, and less advertising have resulted in revenue being lower than I expected. I made this mistake and I take responsibility for it. In this new environment, we need to become more capital efficient. We have shifted resources to high priority growth areas.

Mark Zuckerberg has been the CEO of Facebook since its inception. Under his leadership, Facebook has grown from a small startup to a global social media giant. However, Zuckerberg has also been criticized for data leaks and fake news on the platform.
