It’s no secret that Elon Musk has made a number of controversial decisions related to Twitter In recent years. However, the latest change is poised to be one that will greatly divide the community, Since social networks will allow adult content.
With a new statement, it has been confirmed that Twitter already allows explicit content for adults, something that was banned for a long time, but started to slowly resurface a few months ago. This way, it is Will allow users to “share nudity or adult sexual behavior and produce and distribute it with consent.”. Although this material may be shared as if it were another image or video, it is clarified that displaying these works in profile photos or banners is not permitted.
To avoid problems as much as possible, Twitter recommends that users adjust their media settings to enable warnings for this content. Here’s what was said about it:
“We believe that users should be able to create, distribute and consume sexually themed material, as long as it is produced and distributed with consent. Sexual expression, whether visual or written, can be a legitimate form of artistic expression. We believe in the autonomy of adults to create and create content that reflects their own beliefs, desires and experiences, including on topics related to sexuality.
The move is something that has been anticipated for months. Last March, there were reports of an increase in profiles of adult material and people associated with this industry. To prevent these accounts from being blocked, Since most money has to be verified blueThere was speculation that Twitter was going to do everything it could to allow this content.
Well, that’s already a reality, and it suggests that Elon Musk’s company will do everything possible to allow their money-making content, Especially after the exit of multiple advertisers. On a related note, Twitter has been completely converted to X. Similarly, the option to view Twitter likes will be removed.
Author’s note.
The inclusion of adult content is not new. However, it is very interesting that this was implemented again when we saw an increase in blue verification users sharing this material. This indicates that the same may happen if there is not such a positive trend.
