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 never said unable to be disclosed. Private as in, you control who you want to see it - as opposed to public, which means, anyone can see it whether you like it or not.
Oh. I was thinking private like a password.
Got it. I don't think you or I are inherently wrong. What you describe, I call it secret. Not private. A password is secret. Giving it to someone else, even for a quick pick, is compromising it.
A driver's license is private, but if you show it to someone else, your personal information is not necessarily compromised - or so we are led to believe.
