Title: Last night I learned that Twitter has changed its default Direct Message settings so that by default, you can only receive DMs from people that don&#x27;t follow you ONLY if they are verified.<p>This is obviously really bad for people who use Twitter for business, journalism, etc. and want to be contacted by anyone. Also, a really shady move since apparently it hasn&#x27;t been publicly announced.<p>More importantly, switching the setting back to &quot;allow all users&quot; seems not to work that well for me, since I changed the settings last night and it&#x27;s back to &quot;only from verified accounts&quot; as of this morning, I hope this is an unintentional bug, however I&#x27;ve seen reports of that happening to other users as well.<p>Some sources:<p>https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;GergelyOrosz&#x2F;status&#x2F;1680156192876756992<p>https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;snafuqd&#x2F;status&#x2F;1680037620041039873<p>https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;halomancer1&#x2F;status&#x2F;1680039297637040129
