But don't you dare inquire about the location of Elon's jet.

I don't know any real people that use twitter. Like they have accounts apparently, but they haven't been used in over a decade.

What the fuck is "X"

Next it'll start recommending you to follow your classmates. Might even ask your coworkers and boss to follow your account as well. Who's that "furrylover69" that starts to appear in your feed? Oh right, it's Steve from accounting.

I'm feeling a fat fine in EU. Can't wait.

Hell no. As soon as I see a new privacy policy, that's the time I delete my Twitter account.

I know it's X now, but I subscribed to Twitter and will call it like that.

There's no need to indulge Elon Musk just because he's rich, he's a spoiled kid.

A huge "No thank you"!!!!!!!

Elon Musk is still getting owned on his own platform and is assembling the most sophisticated ad hominem generator known to man.

"Elon the state of Tesla bodywork is unacceptable and at this rate the Cybertruck will never launch"

CALCULATING RESPONSE: BIOMETRIC DATA SUGGESTS USER BMI ABOVE AVERAGE

"Yeah well you're fat fucking gotem"

Repeat after me...get fucked Elon.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Key changes in the updated version include clauses about X collecting users’ biometric data as well as information on their employment and educational backgrounds.

The firm already used user data for various purposes, including personalizing its services, conducting research and surveys, and “fostering safety and security”—all of those practices will continue to stand under the new privacy policy.

For example, fingerprint or facial recognition could enable more secure and convenient user authentication, while education and job history data could facilitate networking and professional opportunities.

He explained that it was possible for companies or even governments to misuse this information for monitoring purposes without users’ consent, while storing education and job histories could inadvertently lead to discriminatory practices.

First, if the use of these markers gets broader adoption, it might establish a system where it becomes virtually impossible to remain anonymous on the net, further eroding the very notion of online privacy.”

Pantaleoni drew a parallel to OpenAI CEO Sam Altman’s plans to scan billions of people’s eyes in exchange for cryptocurrency.

Why would anyone use twitter now?

Edit: i meant to say twitter, not twitter

While the potential misuse of highly personal information by private companies is indeed a concern, I believe we may be overlooking a key point that the article doesn't fully address: Musk's ambition to create a "super app". I haven't delved deeply into this concept, but I've pondered it a bit. The question that comes to mind is: why would someone choose to develop an app for Twitter instead of Android or iOS?

Apart from the obvious advantage of not having to develop for two separate platforms, there's also the benefit of user identification. This, I believe, will be a major draw for many services. The ability to verify a user's identity at the ID level, even down to their fingerprint, is a significant advantage. From a technical standpoint, it's impressive, but consider the legal implications as well. It's incredibly convenient for those offering sensitive services.

If this approach proves successful and attracts companies, government entities, and so on, and if Twitter becomes the platform where we can easily renew our driving licenses, pay municipal taxes, and handle other tedious tasks, would we be willing to exchange our personal data for such convenience? Perhaps those of us reading this comment wouldn't, at least initially, but I suspect the majority of people would.

yep I won't be logging into x anytime soon

So they can sell ads safe and secure to those who will be hit hardest by them?
