I really dislike how you jumped some conclusions on implementation.

Nobody has any clue how they will gather this data or even if it is for android or iOS.

It could be part of the X phone. X could use the camera and implement their own face unlock for X. X could use voice.




X phone? Twitter becomes X and now makes phones? What world am I living in?


This is your mind on Musk.

(Though, I think there actually _was_ a short-lived Twitter-branded phone, back in the day... Anyone remember this? Am I totally imagining it?)


Maybe you're thinking of Peek/TwitterPeek? $99 Blackberry style handheld with free cellular, but strictly for email/Twitter only.


This is your mind being bias.

The point of my post was huge assumptions about how the data would be collected. It’s such in the box thinking that the only systems that exist are that of Apple and Android.

Further more the responses and down votes just hi-lighted the bias reactions of all those musk haters.

I don’t even have twitter or what ever they call it know. I just know what a bias zero thinking assertion looks like.


There was. It was horrible.


A world in which Blue Checks have replaced MAGA hats.


Edging ever and ever closer to E(vil) Corp.


They do have abilities to build and ship a Microsoft Kin though.


Oh wow, the Kin. That's a deep cut.


Can I see the announcement for this phone? Or is that also coming “early next year”?


Nobody said there was a X phone. I was just giving alternatives to the probably wrong assumption that Android and apples biometrics are the only ways password less login could be implemented.
