Verification badge prices are too damn high

I just want the dockerfile that generated the image.

But how will people know your container is official besides all the hints on your website?

For large companies that serve many customers 5K per year is a drop in a bucket. If it provides their customers with a more secure experience, it is worth it.

It’s all proprietary drivel & should be avoided.

Wait, Facebook did the same nonsense as well?

Looks like there is now a subscription program. imo that’s much better than it used to be at least for Insta (apologies for the link; not sure when it changed so that’s the best quick search).

To be fair, they are providing several services with it, along with the data hosting. Being verified also means you get boosted in search results, with comes with more downloads. So at least the cost can be somewhat justified. Whether it's too much is valid for debate.

The fact that paid images get boosted in search results, instead of good images, is just bad IMO
This doesn't justify the price for me, this justifies getting rid of this system

I too want to rake in piles of cash for being a useless "value added product".
