The X team received information that some likes may have remained publicly available. We have contacted you because your X account may have been potentially affected by this security incident.
Public likes are incentivizing the wrong behavior. For example, many people feel discouraged from liking content that might be 'edgy' in fear of retaliation from trolls, or to protect their public image.
The company says it has already taken steps to ensure that likes remain private. It's worth noting that, despite the change, the likes count remains public.
