Why It's Important: Twitter re-launched the Twitter Blue subscription earlier today. The company earlier stated that people could subscribe to the revamped service by paying $8 per month through the web or $11/per month through Apple Inc.'s iOS. 

In November, while defending his decision to sack almost 50% of the company's workforce globally, Musk said that the microblogging side witnessed a "massive drop in revenue" due to activist groups pressuring advertisers.
