Starting next month, X’s updated privacy policy will entitle it to collect some users’ biometric data and other personal information.
Under the revised policy, which takes effect September 29, X (formerly known as Twitter) “may collect and use your biometric information for safety, security and identification purposes” so long as the user provides consent.
The biometric data collection is for X Premium users only, the company told CBS MoneyWatch when reached for further information.
Why the hell are people still using that shitty site?
I use it exclusively for porn, honestly
I mean at least you’re being honest. Cheers mate, have a nice wank on me! 🌟
Are you sure you want it on you? If so, ASL?
Yes, I’m sure. Let’s go! ☺️
ASL; I’ve been burned before by a twelve year old woman
Say what now?
Wtf show me.
Because its still the best (or only) place to get specific news and updates immediately. I mainly follow various sports teams, athletes, and small sports media people. I tried the same on Mastadon but most people are not there. I have not posted anything in many years.
This biometric stuff is no good though and I will not be participating in that.
Using social media for news has been a bad idea way before the Muskrat had anything to do with it, but sure
elon wants to find out if he truly has the smallest weewee
Forgive my ignorance, but do mobile devices even store biometric data ? I was under the impression that our biometric data would be hashed and salted and our thumb/face would unlock it, akin to how a normal password flow works…?
I think what they’re implying here is that X (and other apps) can access the biometric sensors directly themselves.
I still don’t think that’s how it works even if X would like it to.
