Accounts flagged for potential terms of service violations are shown a prompt to verify identity by scanning both palms. Re-verification requires just one scan. X head of product Nikita Bier previously said biometric authentication would only be presented as an option for accounts auto-suspended for spam, not as a general platform requirement. The feature was pulled from the latest X for iOS update and has not been officially announced.
