During the first week of September 2023, the X social media platform stated within an update to the company's privacy policy that it might collect biometric and professional occupation information from its users.

The update emphasizes, therefore, how the social network in question has the ability to expand the information collected regarding present accounts. The statement claims that the platform reserves the ability to collect such data only with the individual's consent, and that the update is aimed only at security, protection and identification purposes.

Thus, X premium users will soon have the opportunity to provide a government ID and an image of themselves for verification purposes.
