As we observe Self Harm Awareness month, X’s Safety team continues to strengthen protections against harmful content. Key changes we’ve made to our Self-harm policy include:
› Enhanced Detection: X is enhancing detection to spot predatory behavior targeting minors (especially those showing self-harm signs). Predatory accounts will be suspended and reported to law enforcement, where appropriate. Minors exhibiting self-harm behaviors and interacting with predatory accounts may also have their accounts suspended as a protective measure.
› Tougher rules on graphic self-harm content: Graphic or gory images/videos showing cutting, self-injury, or self-harm without recovery context is not allowed as it can normalize harm or attract predators.
› Improved signals to ensure supportive conversations about mental health are protected when they focus on recovery.
