“Based on your consent, we may collect and use your biometric information for safety, security, and identification purposes,” The revised policy of X(Twitter) is expected to go into effect on September 29, 2023.

The thing is, biometric data is permanent and can’t be changed. If we share that with X, it could mean lifelong privacy risks. And seriously, I can’t think of a single reason why Elon needs to know where I went to high school for data security purposes.

People keep talking about leaving Twitter, but when will they actually do that? I guess they’ll just keep putting up with it, and I don’t see that changing anytime soon.

    X is safe and effective?

    Since Elon has been very transparent about his goal of making X the everything app, by adding all this stuff and biometrics… For security?

    What could possibly go wrong?

      He’s also friends with Putin & other autocrats.

      What could go wrong?

      Oh yeah…Elon has been known to ban every antifascist. & he wants access to all of their information.
