One of the most popular queer porn creators on Twitter revealed she was permanently suspended for violating the site’s “rules against graphic violence or adult content” through her profile’s header image. The banner shows two women in bed (the full version is a masturbation scene), one has a bare breast but no nipples showing, but it’s unclear what action is taking place. “If you have a suggestive banner, PLEASE CHANGE IT—Maybe I’m stupid but I thought twitter’s NSFW policy meant no explicit nudity in your profile, but it’s really vague, and too much titty could get your account banned,” the artist tweeted.
After three appeals, Twitter decided the account “does not appear to be in violation of the Twitter Rules” after all, and the permanent suspension was reversed. Twitter’s safety team is notorious for its vague moderation policies: “Twitter really doesn’t protect anyone in my field, it truly sucks,” the artist said. “Not just artists, but anyone creating any kind of queer erotica, writers and sex workers and all.” She adds, “It’s just that the [terms of service] is SO vague about what is or is not considered NSFW, it makes it very hard to know sometimes what is OK and what’s not.”
