Who here is going to put their ID and photo on X/Twitter
Why would anybody do this?
That’s literally what I thought about installing Chrome and sharing my browsing history with Google. Why would I get a Facebook account and share my name, my face and my daily activities with the entire world. I thought that this is just pure insanity, and nobody will ever go along with this level of stupidity. Oh, boy was I in for a surprise.
Look who is laughing now that Chrome is the number one browser and many websites are only tested on Chrome. FB has so many users that people think it’s really odd that I’m not there with everyone else.
I don’t know why you’re being down voted. You’re making a fair comparison.
I don’t think it’s a fair comparison. Many people don’t understand computers or web browsers. They think they’re safe because they come from big companies and they don’t think those companies are stealing their data. After all, they didn’t enter in any personal info when they installed Chrome.
Sending Twitter your ID is a whole other level. That involves you actively surrendering your personal information.
Expecting people to see both the same way doesn’t make sense to me at all.
Giving your ID to Twitter is indeed on a whole different level. I would never do it, and a lot of people here seem to agree with me.
However, in my previous example I’m pointing out that there are a surprising number of people who don’t see it that way. Just because you and I would never do it, doesn’t mean much. There are always people who just don’t care about privacy or security.
Maybe they don’t know much, or understand what they’re doing, or maybe the social pressure is so great that they feel like they have to get an account. Either way, I would argue that the number of those people is disappointingly high.
Elon promised that if you sign up for a paid premium account and it gets a lot of engagement, then X will give you money. There are a lot of fools who will gladly share their ID for free money. Of course, the money will never come, but that won’t stop the suckers signing up for this.
