I assume just for verified users? A good way to weed out bots, and only suckers, grifters and sex workers with no better options are verified anymore anyway. So limited harm.

I just hope it doesn’t become mandatory and if it does I’m getting the fuck out of “X”

Removed as a protest against the community’s support for campaigns to bring about the deaths of members of marginalized groups, and opposition to private entities working to prevent such campaigns, together with it’s mindless flaming and downvoting of anyone who disagrees.

Elon has the vibe of someone who likes low budget TV shows now that you mention it.

Hey there’s nothing wrong with low budget tv shows! You can’t take my early seasons of Stargate SG-1 from me like that

There are some gems hidden in the rubble. But one probably wouldn’t say they’re good because they’re low budget.

I genuinely don’t care about pretty much every other piece of drama related to X but I won’t be giving any social media or my government issued ID that won’t be happening.

I’ve made a mistake by trying to restore a old Facebook account that I wanted to “delete”, I even attempted it on two occasions, of course they demand an ID picture but their website is horrible with the phone camera so the pics always came out blurry so they always refused them.

Never again.

I only use twitter/x to watch porn. There is no fucking way that I’m associating that with my own ID.

community notes mention this will be a feature of X premium.

X.

premium.

There’s no way of knowing, they never shared their ID with me after I sent mine to them. Talk about a one way relationship…

He’s creating his own cryptocurrency because of the captive customer base isn’t he?

If I’m actually verified, I probably won’t be able to get away with saying half of the dumb things I say here.

So, that’s a no from me.

Yea me too. The difference is that I mostly criticize the children here for being irrational. I don’t care if someone finds out my actual identity.

But if I was a white supremacist posting racist content on twitter, this would be a deterrent.

This is actually Elon bending to his overloads - advertisers. He won’t admit defeat. But he will make all the nazis out themselves.

Good. Bring the same system here. Because there’s a lot of people on the left who also think it is OK to be openly racist.

I mean, I never used Twitter in the first place so I’m not the target audience; but this would be a hard pass for me.
