“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.

    Ahh yes, the company owned by Elon Musk, who famously called a diver a “pedophile” for criticizing his coffin submarine idea to rescue some kids. He’s also slashed budgets and cut manpower in all the important departments at twitter. That’s the person I’m most likely to trust with my personal information.
