Twitter Is Working on Paid DMs?

Even if used mostly by promoters, spammers, trolls, bots, etc., who want to pay to direct message, it still seems like a win/win for everyone. They get their eyeballs on message, the receiver gets paid for their attention, Twitter likely will get some additional revenue.

I personally get spam DMs too, even though I intentionally keep my follower count low, so I can see how this would cut down on spam by a huge amount for bigger accounts.

BTW, people tweeting screenshots of tweets without even linking them is why images are an anti-feature for twitter. The original sin, before even the quote RT.
