X Loses All Credibility for Me – Time to Protect Personal Content!

X (formerly Twitter) is now losing all credibility for me once and for all.

Starting January 15, 2026, Elon Musk's new terms of service come into effect – and they're a real doozy.
In plain English: Personal content, photos, codes, texts – everything you upload can basically be grabbed by X for free use, including training AI models (like Grok, for example). A worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license – just like that.

That's why I've already removed my personal pictures that Ben took of me.
Same goes for all the Python codes I once proudly shared.

Why? Because I have no desire for Elon Musk and X to secure a license on my photos, my identity, or my programming work – or for random people to later steal my code, pass it off as their own, and make money from it.

No. Just NO!

I'm definitely not buying into this nonsense.

In the end, X will be left with – as requested – only the dumbest memes, pointless cat pictures, and meaningless landscape photos. Congratulations.

Enough has happened.

Anyway, I'm firmly on the rebellious side and say it loud: NO!

The real nerd community is way better off on platforms, forums, or GitHub when it comes to serious codes and personal pictures.
X can gladly stay the playground for hollow memes and generic stock photos.

In that spirit: Take good care of yourselves!
Delete all personal stuff in time if you don't want X and Elon to just snatch your content.

Stay critical. Stay rebellious.
