Twitter’s age verification in the EU literally needed ur ID or a picture of ur face really sounds like a privacy issue so I figured I could post this here. At the moment I’ve been using a vpn but since it’s literally the only reason why I use one I was curious if there was any other way to do so that would be free

    i mean my profile isn’t my straight up IRL, and the only ppl who knows me IRL and online are ppl I trust enough for that, I ain’t gonna show my online identity to an IRL I don’t trust enough. Cuz of where I used to live i took an habit of I making sure to separate my online and IRL identity

      I just feel it is more secure to keep it entirely to message apps when it comes to communicating with people you know.

      Think that’s why I’ve never seen social media like twitter as vital enough to go through the trouble of verifying.

      Figure Elon is the type of guy to read through everyones private messages too, so that’s another reason.
