The updated policy, effective November 15, 2024, allows X to share user data with third parties to train AI models. This opens the door to potential revenue streams through data licensing deals similar to those seen on platforms like Reddit.
While the policy mentions the option to opt out of data sharing, the exact process for doing so remains unclear. X did not provide specific details on how users could exercise this right.
In addition to changes to its privacy policy, X is also tightening its terms of service to address the platform’s massive data collection practices.
