Tried to create an alt twitter account. Twitter wanted my face as collateral.

It said, “Confirm you’re a human – Before signing into X, we need to verify that you’re a real person. Your photo will never be stored or used to identify you. This check flashes different colors. Use caution if you are photosensitive.”

I gave it a try with face partially covered twice, both times it rejected the attempt. What I gave was enough to identify I am human, but I guess not enough to positively identify exactly WHICH human.

    No, nobody does. But sometimes there are videos that are important that only get posted to Twitter, and you can’t see them unless you log in.
