That would be so bad for the privacy of the owner of Twitter... Can't let that happen to him! That is for the common folk!
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.
That's the funny part, it's a botnet
I'm allowing my account to languish and block all their trackers and shit.
What the fuck is "X"
It's just Twitter that is trying to rebrand so we forget how shitty they are.

What is Twitter ? /s
What is love?
Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more.
Whats all this shouting we don't want no trouble here! This is a local shop for local people!
Twitter trying to make fetch happen.
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.
Hell no. As soon as I see a new privacy policy, that's the time I delete my Twitter account.
No, the time is now, it was yesterday,… months ago. Please people, stop fooling yourself.
Went ahead and deleted today, wasn't an active user, but it's not a platform I want to support in the slightest.
But that would require caring enough to put the effort into deleting the account.
I'd rather just leave my account unused and taking up space. Then I don't have to visit the site.
Don't deadname Elon's platform. Elon would never deadname people... Oh wait.
This is what is takes for you to leave that dying platform? THIS? Really? Not the hundreds of reasons up to now? Social media addicts are wild, man.
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.
A huge "No thank you"!!!!!!!
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.
The original article contains 820 words, the summary contains 170 words. Saved 79%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Repeat after me...get fucked Elon.
He's one of a handful of people in my book who do not have the honour of being called by their name.
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"
yep I won't be logging into x anytime soon
