Does this mean in certain US states that you will have to provide ID in order to view X content?

Made me check for my home state of Utah. But looks like they require a "substantial portion" or 1/3 of content on a site to be porn. source Looks like we all need to get busy posting tits to twitter for the good of the children.
How long would it take to make it have above that threshold?
Probably by morning.
DDOS now means distributed distribution of sex, obviously.
As someone in Utah as well, who exactly measures that? Can I get their job?
This appears to have only 30% porn, thus it's okay...
So you're saying all PornHub has to do is add a large non-fiction eBook library or something?
Probably no, unless it turns out to have more porn than non-porn. Which could definitely happen!
(And with a site name like X, probably should happen.)
If they censored it like they did pornhub then how would all the right wing States get their propaganda?
Can't wait for three days from now, when they roll that back in a panic.
Do they still have enough staff on board to roll back anything?
Do they even have enough staff on board to panic?
Good luck peeling all copies of my balls off their chin of a website by then!
I thought they were already allowed... There's tons of adult performers already on there showing full frontal nudity and pornography.
As much as X can get bent The eradication of human sexuality from mass media culture is a clear sign of intense rot at the heart of our civilization. How can such a fundamental element of thr human experience can be so conspicuously absent for almost all art and media. A clear sign of the omnipresent censure and purge of dissenting opinion in our supposedly "free" society.

What are you talking about? Heaps of movies have sex scenes. Heaps of songs are about sex. There are heaps of books and other stories about sex. The internet is packed with sex stuff of all kinds. Advertisements in the street are obvious implicitly or explicitly about sex. So how can you say that sex is 'conspicuously absent from almost all art and media'? Are you looking?
Allowing explicit porn on twitter doesn't make it ground-breaking in any way. It just changes the tone and target audience of the site, such that you will now see porn inserted into basically any conversation or topic.
Time to drop a ton of photoshops of Musk with a diseased micropenis until he changes his mind about this. Maybe shops of Zuckerberg and Musk heads onto gay porn stars so it looks like Mark is dominating Elon's asshole in the literal sense rather than just the figurative sense.
"And just like that the perfect use case for AI finally emerged."
.......is THIS what we're doing for gay pride month? I mean, I'm not against it, I just want to know the plan so I'm not caught off guard.
So he is that desperate already? His user numbers must be close to the ground to try this in the US.
Adult content has always been defacto allowed on Twitter AFAIK. That's why the headline uses the word "explicitly". They're just making it dejure allowed.
X has been toying with the idea of fully embracing adult content and has even planned a feature for adult creators that could position X as an OnlyFans rival. That plan was delayed, Platformer reported in 2022, after red-teaming flagged a seemingly insurmountable obstacle to the launch: "Twitter cannot accurately detect child sexual exploitation and non-consensual nudity at scale."
Non-consensual porn had also been a serious problem for PornHub, eventually they just nuked all unverified accounts.
Hmm, maybe that's the plan for X too. It's been going in that pay-to-play direction for a while now.
Am I missing something here? I thought X/Twitter always allowed NSFW content.
It had no specific rules for it or against it. It was just a secret rule that you could upload on it. Now it's official ig.
TIL Grimes wasn't explicitly allowed to have butts, breasts and genitals before.
edit: oh... not his ex. just call it Twitter ffs.
It's Twitter. It will always be twitter. It should never be called anything else. Put x.com in your browser and see what happens to the address bar. It's twitter.
they recently changed the address i think, finally. but i don't care, it's still a dumb and nondescript name (i mean, it's literally the shorthand for 'unknown') replacing probably the tech brand most integrated into languages around the world.
If X becomes XXX does he gain more power? The more times his favorite letter appears, the stronger his dipshittery becomes!
so he fucked up the whole platform so he has to raise money with porn? not suprised to be honest
Just add two more Xs and it's complete
Wait they took off the porn? There's like always been porn on Twitter. I'm confused.
It's probably so he can say that it's too hard to tell nude children from adults.
Well see, children are the ones that are still children. You can tell which is which by the way that it is.
Cunt talks just like trump and other right wingers.
"We do it best. By far. No one can compare to us. We do it better than anyone."
Which is always a lie.
Going to need to add two more Xs to the name.
So since Deviantart, Imgur, and Tumblr died by banning porn, he's hoping X will come back to life!?!?
That scans, last time I looked around on there it was almost exclusively dicks.
Fluff PR piece to get more people talking about Musk's shitty platform.
I can't wait for the stories to come out showing ads for companies next to CSAM that hasn't been taken down in a month.
Just don't call anyone 'cis'. That's a crime punishable by ~~death ~~ account deletion.
Wow, a lotta people not aware of porn being a thing already on twitter
So... let's start uploading lots of gay/trans porn and swe how long it takes before the policy changes!
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
