Terrorists Are Paying for Check Marks on XTwitter
Terrorists Are Paying for Check Marks on XTwitter
The report shows that X has accepted payments for subscriptions from entities barred from doing business in the United States, a potential violation of sanctions.
Anyone who is actually surprised by this has not been paying attention.
Lemme guess, they're not talking about the ones here in the States...
Doesn't a terrorist own it?
No, It's an African mine brat
With securities backed by wahabi terrorists.
Yes, we know - the alt-right is already on twitter.
Thought they got an automatic checkmark from elon
Only the domestic ones.
When you want to ensure the hate and ethnic cleansing propaganda is authentic...

This is the best summary I could come up with:
X, the social media platform owned by Elon Musk, is potentially violating U.S. sanctions by accepting payments for subscription accounts from terrorist organizations and other groups barred from doing business in the country, according to a new report.
“We were surprised to find that X was providing premium services to a wide range of groups the U.S. has sanctioned for terrorism and other activities that harm its national security,” said Katie Paul, the director of the Tech Transparency Project.
Mr. Musk also did away with Twitter’s verification policy, in which staff members vetted politicians, celebrities, journalists and others, granting them a blue check mark to show they were real.
Internet companies have previously leaned on the amendments, including in 2020 when TikTok argued that they protected the app from an effort by President Donald J. Trump to block U.S. citizens from downloading it.
Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah, appears to have started paying X in November for a premium account and frequently posts news releases and memes mocking the United States and Israel to his 93,000 followers.
And the Yemeni militia known as the Houthis subscribed this month, just weeks after the United States said it would be designated a terrorist group following its attacks on cargo ships in the Red Sea.

Don't you get several virgins if you do get that check mark?

Stop dead naming X
Don’t support corporate “personhood”. Refusing to call Twitter by the stupid name Musk has given it is 100% acceptable.
The apartheid network now identifying as X
You have to be alive to be deadnamed. Which part of Twitter is sentient again?
