Original Note:
SMS two-factor authentication will require a Twitter Blue subscription to use. This change is to ensure SMS is only being used by real people after it was discovered SMS was being abused, costing the company millions annually. Other two-factor methods remain free. https://www.cnet.com/tech/services-and-software/twitter-to-charge-for-sms-two-factor-authentication/
