“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.
That’s not all. The company has further outlined in its upcoming privacy policy it “may use the information we collect and publicly available information to help train our machine learning or artificial intelligence models.”
All artists better get the fuck off that plattform. I doubt he will stop at text.
I imagine that’s going to be policy of most commercial online platforms going forward if the AI boom continues.
User pressure might keep it away from dedicated art sharing platforms, but general purpose social media will end up open season as a source of training data.
