X, formerly known as Twitter, will collect biometric data on its users, such as a photograph of their face, in an update to its privacy policy.The company told the BBC: "X will give the option to provide their government ID, combined with a selfie, to add a verification layer."Biometric data may be extracted from both the government ID and the selfie image for matching purposes. This will additionally help us tie, for those that choose, an account to a real person by processing their government-issued ID. This will also help X fight impersonation attempts and make the platform more secure."
