πŸ”’ X Introduces New Identity Verification Process: Selfie and ID Required! πŸ”’

X, formerly known as Twitter, is stepping up its identity verification game with a forthcoming process that involves submitting a selfie and a government-issued ID. This development, discovered by app researcher Nima Owji, aims to enhance user verification and security.

The streamlined process, expected to take around five minutes, entails providing photos of your official identification and a selfie. AU10TIX, an Israeli identity verification company, will manage the user data. Consent will be sought from users to retain their information for up to 30 days, facilitating an identity check conducted by AU10TIX.

According to X, the data gathered from a user's profile and the provided information will be utilized to bolster safety measures, particularly in thwarting impersonation attempts.

Elon Musk's early adoption of this system confirmed on his X account on August 1, indicates its functionality. However, the degree to which X users will be comfortable sharing such personal information, considering the involvement of a third party, remains to be seen.

Additionally, X users face the intriguing decision of investing in Elon Musk's Twitter Blue, which comes with a new version offering premium features.

Stay informed and exercise your discretion in sharing personal data to ensure online security. πŸ›‘οΈπŸ“ΈπŸ“
