See this is what terrifies me about gating anything behind an X login That's not a calendly link, it's a malicious x permissions link - it INSTANTLY deep links to the x auth page 2 taps and your X account is gone with zero context of what's happening So many would fall for this before they realized

You granted them whatever permissions they set it up They impersonate you to scam your following or you of anything your x account has permission to do from the feed

Wild… I’m guessing you have to approve first, though, right? But they use a fake app name like calendly or something to trick you into thinking it’s for a legit reason based on the DMs?
