The big update is rumored to take place this month. Twitter has already taken down several accounts of escorts and some models- Casey Deluxe being an example-. This steps might follow Pornhub’s purge of illegally uploaded videos. Still, it seems more populist actions.

The intention to purge Backpage and tumblr was focused to taken down “illegal content” and “human trafficking networks”. However, it used the 1% of cases to punish the other 99% who were just posting stuff and not harming anybody. Twitter was the only social network that allowed adult performers market their content.

The National Center on Sexual Exploitation (NCOSE), an anti-porn organization with religious ties has filed a lawsuit against Twitter this past Wednesday alleging the social media website benefited “from a sex trafficking venture.” The lawsuit utilizes SESTA-FOSTA’s Section 230 exceptions and could theoretically force Twitter to purge sex workers and adult content creators, adult industry experts warn.

The lawsuit was filed on behalf of an anonymous minor who alleges Twitter knowingly refused to pull sexually explicit images of him posted on the platform without consent.
