As reported, Elon Musk's social network began displaying users' locations and additional basic information, such as account creation dates and username changes. The goal is to enable the identification of fake behavior and bots impersonating real users, thereby improving credibility and transparency on the network. "We will provide people with enough context to determine if an account is authentic," the company said.

כולם שמים לחתונה האדומה ב-X ב-24 שעות האחרונות?

לאחר שהכריזו מוקדם יותר החודש על חשיפת המיקום של כל היוזרים ב-X, הפיצ׳ר נפתח לחלק מהחשבונות ואז נסגר לאחר מספר שעות (לי למשל הוא לא נפתח בכלל).

מה נחשף בינתיים?
בעיקר קמפיין ההשפעה של חשבונות אסלאם רדיקלי שמתחזים לחשבונות… pic.twitter.com/oe7guwSNGE

For example, user @noor_jomaa01 presented herself as a Gazan and raised tens of thousands of dollars, but it turns out her origin is actually from Nigeria. "Thanks to your support, we raised 42,000 dollars for our family in Gaza," she wrote alongside photos of her supposedly destroyed home. "Every donation and share is a lifeline. We still urgently need help with safe passage, medical treatment, and daily needs."

The prominent anti-Israeli X account "Khalisi," which was supposedly operated by a European user, was also exposed as an entity tweeting from Pakistan. Alongside this, numerous accounts of "journalists from Gaza" were exposed, who actually operate from the United States.

BREAKING: Thousands of "Palestinian" accounts posting daily about "starvation in Gaza" and "Israeli crimes" aren't based in Gaza.

Hasbara activist Ella Kenan, who lit a torch on Israel's 76th Independence Day, wrote Sunday morning, "Huge accounts in the West whose main content is Israel, spreading blood libels and more are actually in Pakistan, Bangladesh, and various other 'world gems,' and more accounts of 'journalists' from Gaza are actually located in Turkey or other places, just not in Gaza. This is what an activist warfare arena looks like. Does the State of Israel have a response to this issue? (No)."

She published a series of radical tweets from Iran, Poland, and even an account that presented itself as American but actually operates from Turkey. "How unsurprising, will there be additional surprises?" Kenan wondered. "This is bizarre if true, but also not shocking."
