The social media platform formerly known as Twitter can now harvest your biometric data and DNA.
A new update quietly added to the platform's privacy policy says that X now has permission to harvest its users' fingerprints, retinal scans, voice and face recognition and keystroke patterns.
The update would mean that anyone who uses fingerprint verification to log in to the app from their phone, posts selfies or videos to the platform or speaks their mind on X 'spaces' could see their unique biometric data catalogued by the company.
The new policy, which describes its interest in users' biometrics as 'for safety, security, and identification purposes,' also added the platform's intent to scrape up data on users' job history, educational background and 'job search activity.'
The move follows nearly a year of turmoil for the microblogging app, which has included Musk requesting that its users pay subscription fees for premium services and verification: part of his larger plan to recover from cratering advertising revenue.
