First, I’m not going to give any social media my ID.
If someone intends to expose your ID to hackers due to Twitter’s poor security performance, this presents a perfect occasion for them.
I don’t know why these social media companies are so fixated on asking for personal information. And I’m sure this is just the beginning of Elon’s grand plan.
Perhaps it’s time to abandon Twitter and move to other fediverse or decentralised platforms? I would love to see a mass migration.
I mean… I kinda get the point of ID verified accounts. I would like to be able to tell if an account is not a bot with 100% accuracy or to filter out troll accounts. I would like the option to choose whenever I like between a “real” social network and a “more chaotic” social network. Although that shouldn’t be the responsibility of the social network developer because the obvious trust issues but your ID issuer. (Usually your country/state) Maybe a network of state-operated fediverse servers? It is hard and dangerous but I believe the idea has its merits.
Edit: I knew it would be controversial but I am genuinely curious about the opinions against it instead of plain downvotes
