Of course it does
Who the fuck is uploading their resume on twitter? People are dumb AF.
Well, Elon did warn us that X is “more”.
As much as I'm not a fan of what Twitter and social media platforms are doing, I think this is non-news with a misleadingly bad sounding headline.
Sure, they'll collect employment history if you use them to search for a job, and sure they'll collect fingerprint hashes and the like if you choose to use that to sign in, but from the sounds if it unless you specifically use those features that they're working on you're not effected.
Lmao, that's hilarious
Every day I thank god I left that shithole of a site
Damn i have a Twitter account somewhere. Never uploaded anything at least
