X Rolls Out New “About This Account” Transparency Feature

[madmax]

Elon Musk’s X has started deploying a new profile transparency tool showing an account’s base location, username-change history, join date, and how the app was downloaded. The feature aims to curb bot activity and inauthentic engagement, giving users more context to judge whether they’re interacting with real people. Some users worldwide already see the update, though it’s not yet visible on others’ profiles as X gradually rolls out the change.
