X users are still complaining about arbitrary shadowbanning

Users of Elon Musk-owned X, formerly known as Twitter, are complaining about the platform's shadowbanning practices. Shadowbanning involves restricting the visibility of posts by labeling certain accounts temporarily, which limits the reach and visibility of their content. X users have expressed confusion and frustration over the lack of clarity regarding the reasons for the restrictions and the absence of an appeals process. This ongoing issue with shadowbanning undermines Musk's claims of being a champion of free expression and raises questions about platform accountability and transparency. X's content moderation policies are currently under investigation by the European Commission for compliance with the Digital Services Act (DSA).
