Oh I see. It's just collecting the info based on what you yourself put into your TwitterX profile. I don't use it so I reckon' that's what they mean. Facebook does the same thing. Hopefully X will make it easy for users to opt-out.

The “free-speech absolutist” has nothing to say. Elon Musk under fire for silence over man facing death sentence for tweets https://www.independent.co.uk/news/...witter-saudi-arabia-free-speech-b2403234.html
Still not a word from Musk. Musk is fine with MAGA insurrectionists calling for violence and overthrow of the U.S government, but he will not say a word to defend a guy whose reposts were completely peaceful and rightfully critical of a government.

Just another day of Musk's stupidity... Elon Musk 'likes' trending #BanTheADL posts as white supremacist ad runs on platform Anti-Semitic rhetoric has been especially rampant on the platform over the past 24 hours. https://mashable.com/article/x-twitter-elon-musk-white-supremacist-ad-ban-adl-hashtag
I support ADL ban fully. This is one of many organizations specializing in human programming. GWB is a notable product of this kind of programming. The people operating ADL will burn in hell if hell exists of course.
The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) is a civil rights organization which stands up against violence targeting groups & individuals, opposing anti-semitism, and supports civil rights. Let's read their description from the ADL website - "A global leader in combating antisemitism, countering extremism and battling bigotry wherever and whenever it happens, ADL works to protect democracy and ensure a just and inclusive society for all." Quite naturally both Musk and yourself are opposed to democracy, eliminating bigotry and ending extremist violence.
Sounds like an oxymoron, antisemitism and civil rights in the same breath. Since when has Israel been concerned with civil rights? What has Israel done for Ukraine? This antisemitism bs argument is getting tired, what antisemitism really is, is Jewish lobbyists pushing their own sympathy barrow, mostly toward the gullible USA. "....In mid-January, the Biden administration asked Israel to send 1950s-era U.S.-made Hawk air defense systems, which have been in storage, to Kyiv to help the Ukrainians defend against a barrage of Russian missiles and Iranian drones. The Israelis reportedly refused. It was a stunning decision by a country that has both enjoyed $107,806,200,000 in military assistance from the United States between 1946 and 2021 and whose population (like Ukraine’s) is forced to live under the threat of rockets, missiles, and drones—a number of which are also derived from Iranian technology. Israel’s leaders have continued to carry on their “war between the wars”—attacking Iranians and their proxies in Syria and sometimes Iraq to ensure the Israeli population remains secure—including an attack on Iranian facilities this past weekend that U.S. officials reportedly attributed to the Mossad, Israel’s intelligence service. Yet, at the same time, the Israelis seem to be denying even ancient and unused technology to the Ukrainians to secure their own population. However, no one should be shocked by Israel’s apparent decision to hold onto the Hawks. Since Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, the Israeli government—much like the Turkish government—has played a double game, offering rhetorical support for Ukrainian independence and providing humanitarian aid to Kyiv. At least the Turks are willing to sell the Ukrainians weaponry. The Israelis, in contrast, are scrupulously avoiding any policies that will damage Jerusalem’s ties to Moscow...."
Note that the ADL is an organization which is based in the U.S. -- it was founded in 1913. It has criticized both antisemitism and "anti-Zionism" while typically pushing a pro-Israeli stance. The ADL has become more stringent in recent years under the leadership of Director Jonathan Greenblatt -- leading to criticism - some of it quite appropriate. However under Greenblatt the ADL is seeking to also broaden its reach beyond being focused on antisemitism. It should be noted the ADL is traditionally focused on issues in the U.S. -- not so much on issues in Israel. At times the organization has criticized the civil rights record and stance of the Israeli government while at other times comparing Palestinian Rights groups to right-wing extremists. Trying to couple the ADL and Israel as being the "same thing" simply does not fly -- while at times the organization supports Israel in statements, it's primary mission is focused on issues inside the U.S.
So why did ADL specifically mention antisemitism? There are plenty more countries involved with human rights abuse, so why focus on the 'poor victimized Israelies' who go about shooting Palestinians in the back and in the head and targeting the youth, never mind about bulldozing houses etc. Yeah, so, I call bs to ADL not being biased toward Israel.
