Wow, he just can't stop making verification more useless. I'd expect that most brands would respond to this by not using Twitter (oops, 'X') any longer.
So now he’s a thug. Basically, Elon is telling companies to pay him protection money, otherwise something might “happen” to their brand.
I hope a big client tells him, publicly, that he can fuck off.
At the very least, one could view it as charging a very high membership fee for brands.... $1,000 a month.
