X wants to collect and store your biometrics, job, and education history

X is such a ridiculous name, at least he didn't opt for "X Æ A-12" though.

I remember that website! Never thought I'd see it used as a punchline.

What a moronic platform from a moronic human.

All the social platforms are the same, one way or another.

Yep, you pretty much summed it up except Twitter is the only major platform that's not hostile towards conservative views (which makes it pretty much the best major tech platform on that alone), which is ultimately why the left dislikes/hates Elon because he refuses to abuse his power like previous ownership did and pretty much censor anything that did not suit the narrative of the left (I am not saying the guy is perfect by any means, as none of us are, but at least he tries to be a decent person unlike many on the left in positions of power (maybe even some RINO's to) who don't care of the country burns as long as they get more $/power etc).

because in the end the liberals around here just want to find any excuse to bash Elon because they perceive him as a conservative (since he's not on a power trip censoring political views that the previous ownership censored) when he's actually just more of a old school liberal (he even told Tucker Carlson he voted for Biden etc (it's amazing how someone "so smart" cannot see the obvious that Dementia Joe is just a bad person as anyone with a bit of common sense knows this)) before the woke poison took hold of society back in the good ol' days when society was still mostly sane about 15+ years ago where as nowadays the woke poison is getting out of hand where the good guys (generally conservatives and those of good will) have to defend what used to go without saying which speaks volumes on the direction those in power on the left are headed and trying to push the world in that insane direction as they have pretty much embraced the culture of death (it's just the natural progression of woke "thinking") as anyone who's see's the world through the lens of Christianity see's this a mile away. it's why they can't stand Trump because he stands for everything they hate (i.e. pro-USA/common good etc etc) and they perceive him as a threat to their power and are abusing the legal system to try to destroy a innocent person, meanwhile nothing happens to the real criminal in the white house.

but Trump is a shoe-in for 2024 as the contrast between Trump and Dementia Joe is day and night (it's just sad a lot of people had to actually see Biden screw the country before they woke up out of their coma and start to realize Trump is not the bad guy they have been told he is by the completely corrupt media as voting for the democrats is a vote to destroy the country, it's really that simple in the big picture as anyone with a bit of common sense can see this)

Trump 2024 | Let Common Sense Reign!!!

p.s. don't get me wrong, I am not a fan of all of this biometrics stuff, just seems like a unnecessary risk that one day could potentially be used by shady people to screw the average person. ill take password over biometrics, hands down.

Still going with the victimisation of conservatives narrative?

Conservatives have no problem posting all over social media, including the previous twitter ownership.

WOW…You really bought into all of that. Your twisted political/worldviews aside, Elon’s Twitter is hardly the haven for free speech that he pretends it is especially when he suspended a bunch of accounts that were critical of him. Also, the other mainstream social media platforms implement policies against the promotion of hate speech, violence, medical misinformation (where people could hurt themselves or others taking the advice), and sexual abuse content; these apply regardless of political leanings.

because he refuses to abuse his power

Someone's been drinking from the Musk-flavored Kool-aid for far too long.

You try replying to one of his tweets with something that is critical about HIM, and you'll see how quickly he "abuses" his power, and blocks or even bans you from the site. Musk has been abusing his power over the site ever since he bought it, and sank it into the toilet (no way it's worth even a fraction of the 44 BILLION he spent on it). And then there's suckers like you, who gladly pay 8 bucks a month to a so-called "billionaire" to do exactly what the rest of us did for free right from the start, and continue to do.

"Let Common Sense Reign"

Common sense sure isn't reigning/raining on your parade with that long winded bunch of dribble. Been a while since I've read that much absolute garbage!

X lets liars, scammers, and con men lie to the ignorant, gullible, and cowardly without restrictions...other than criticizing the thin-skinned ignoramus Musk, of course. No one's allowed to do that anymore -- which just happens to be why he convinced the Saudis to buy Twitter. Ahem.

Trump has never won the popular vote. And under his "leadership", conservatives in the USA have done worse and worse in every election since. By 2024, presuming he's not running from prison for (insert a very long list of indictments for crimes against America here), he's going to be a sad little joke come election day.

For the record, as soon as the rational, education, and brave Americans saw "Pwesident Trump" in action, he had lost the 2020 election by the summer of 2017. I told everyone here that then and was proven true -- unlike everything you ever vomit forth from Putin's fancy bears here and, presumably, elsewhere.

Day after day, reality keeps knocking on your door. You're just too afraid to let it in.

All you guys really just need to BLOCK ThaCrip and be done with it like I did. It's pointless to reply to him and you are just wasting your time. Facts don't mean anything to him. It's sad but I am fairly certain he suffers from some kind of mental illness.

I was not aware of any way to block a user on this forum software.

Regardless, my responses are not just about the spreaders of this Faux News neo-Nazi fearmongering drivel, but also for those who might be susceptible to reading these infantile screeds and not realize at the time that its recent source is Putin's disinformation teams intended to sow discord and dissent among the populace.

I think it's important for people to learn that these lies are ancient, and that the same ignorant, gullible, cowardly people fall for them in every nation across every century. The lies play on their irrational innate fears of anything different, whether it's skin tone, sexual preference, and similar meaningless (to society) distinctions...anything to create an inclusive "us" to be conned (for money, power, and sexual favors) by playing on their trumped-up fears of a minority "them".

As has been proven for thousands of years, it's always the con men (religious, political demagogues, etc.) who falsely claim everyone is corrupt (so they can steal from their followers), scream about protecting your children (while they rape them in church and groom them while you're not looking), and whine about the collapse of "family values" (while their own stolen wealth is spent on rentboys and mistresses), etc.

Meanwhile, the truth is that most people are actually decent, honest, and not trying to rape anyone or their kids.

X/Twitter isn't getting 💩 from me. The sooner Melon blasts off for Mars, the better we'll all be.

How does this exactly work on Apple devices with secure enclave and/or similar methods on Android, Windows?

Can this information just being passed on to X/twitter?
