Twitter, now known as X, has reinstated a country origin feature for its user profiles to enhance transparency. This move, implemented worldwide in November 2025, aims to combat misinformation and promote accountability on the platform. While some users welcome this change, others express privacy concerns about increased exposure of personal data. The reintroduction of the feature is part of X’s strategy led by Head of Product Nikita Bier, who emphasizes combating misinformation and aligning with similar initiatives in other social networks. The feature’s impact extends beyond just social media interaction; it may influence how users perceive the credibility of digital content, potentially influencing discussions about user privacy rights. Despite this change, there hasn’t been a significant effect on cryptocurrency markets, but it could signal broader shifts towards stricter transparency standards globally.
