X has new rules that officially allow NSFW X now permits consensually produced adult content if labeled and not in profile pictures or banners. Users posting NSFW content regularly must mark it as sensitive. The rules also ban content promoting exploitation, nonconsent, harm to minors, and obscene behaviors. Despite these changes, enforcement remains challenging. By default, users under 18 or without a birth date cannot view NSFW material, ensuring minors are protected from explicit content. 🔗 TheVerge 🧑‍💻 @agamtechtricks
