We’re rolling out updates to improve transparency for Parody, Commentary, and Fan (PCF) accounts on our platform. Starting April 10, all PCF accounts will be required to include PCF-compliant keywords at the beginning of their account names and avoid using identical avatars to the entities they depict.
These requirements also apply to accounts that have the Parody label. We’re continuing to refine this label and will soon have more details on how it will replace these requirements.
These changes are designed to help users better understand the unaffiliated nature of PCF accounts and reduce the risk of confusion or impersonation. We encourage all affected accounts to update their profiles before the enforcement date.

gonna assume elon either fell for a parody account or got parodied himself over the weekend.
The irony.
Wasn’t the blue check mark originally an actual verification of the user’s identity to some extent, which was in part to alleve confusion over fake/parody accounts? Before Elon made it a badge to show off being a bootlicking dingus?
What a shitshow.
The freest speech of all!
Where comedy will be legal again!
Well, to be fair, the whole thing has become a sick joke, although nobody’s laughing anymore…
He’s so a clown he fears to be confused for a parody
Wasn’t this bro supposed to “legalize comedy”? smh.
Who cares what the nazis on Twitter do?
At this point it’s safe to write off anything that happens there. And anyone that still makes the decision to financially support a fucking nazi can be written off as well.
Do AI generated accounts get the same rules?
How about bot accounts?
But I thought “comedy” was “legal” on xitter? /s
Keep feeding the troll by giving him attention.
I read about half the summary before remembering that I don’t give a damn about Xitter
Pretty sure the owner is a parody of a human being.
That’s actually a good change. “Parody” accounts have spread uncountable amounts of misinformation during the last election. I remember some time ago there was a Justin Trudeau “parody” account that was obviously controlled by a very right wing person because they kept posting fake shit under the name of Trudeau
You think the right-wing parody account will have to follow those rules?
