X has begun rolling out a new profile feature called 'About this account' that shows details such as where the account is based, how many times the username has changed, the original join date, and how the user downloaded the X app. The aim is to curb inauthentic engagement by helping users spot bots or bad actors. First announced in October by head of product Nikita Bier, the feature is appearing gradually on profiles; on web or mobile you access it by tapping the Joined date. Users can choose whether their location is shown as a country or a region, with country as the default. Some users report seeing it before full rollout; TechCrunch notes broader access isn't universal yet. A recent code dive also hinted at a future VPN location warning feature.

November 23, 2025, 7:12 PM EST. Late Friday night, X briefly rolled out a new 'About this account' detail that displayed the exact country a user posts from, based on the IP address. The disclosure appeared on profile pages when clicking the account's join date. Unlike the usual self-reported location, this was an IP-derived country tag. Within hours, the feature was removed without notice, leaving users to wonder if it will return. The move sparked a mix of curiosity and privacy questions, and it comes as X continues testing new profile insights while balancing user trust and safety concerns.

The handset blends new features and familiar strengths, mixing the best of the old with sleek updates. Notably, it adopts a pixel-like camera bar that stabilizes the rear cameras-three high-resolution sensors-echoing a move Google popularized years ago. Apple's enduring MagSafe ecosystem also advances toward the latest Qi2 standard (and its Pixelsnap rival), keeping wireless charging fast and versatile. The color and case choices-Deep Blue and a Bare Naked case-reflect a preference for thin, minimal protection. Overall, the Pro Max offers a compelling balance of innovation and comfort, with a sense of forward momentum rather than overstatement.

Creator Gus Owen's "Downdetector's Downdetector" tracked whether Downdetector was up, spawning a chain of ever-elongating domains like downdetectorsdowndetectorsdowndetector.com and beyond. The gag gained traction on Hacker News, reminding readers that even simple outage trackers can become meta, addictive humor. A quirk of internet lore emerged: domain-label length limits mean those jokes can't exist at full scale, unless publishers prune letters or subdomain. Cloudflare later explained the outage wasn't an attack but a permissions change. The episode highlights how deeply we rely on the internet and how satire travels fast in tech communities.
