Shadowban or what is going on?

[Delontekoq]

Hello!
So it seems like im getting all my posts hidden on 1 account. when checking from another....
"Due to local laws, we are temporarily restricting access to this content until X estimates your age."

The account checking has 30+ age. IP USA. How cant this acc see the posted medias? What local laws are restrincting a 30 years old human to not see the medias?

Is the main acc shadowbanned or what happend?

I read about it here: https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/is-the-new-age-laws-getting-out-of-hand-serious.1739814/

It's probably related to this new regulation. I guess it shouldn't be appearing for you in the US, are you using a VPN?

Could be a mix of content restriction and shadowban. That message usually points to flagged content triggering age or regional filters, even if the viewer is 30+. Check if your posts violate any local platform rules or community guidelines. Also try testing visibility from different IPs and accounts to confirm if it’s a shadowban or a regional restriction issue.

Hello, I opened a thread about it on july 11, a few weeks before the whole thing blew up: https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/method-to-bypass-age-restriction-shadow-ban.1732788/

I made some experiments and these are my findings:

1. I post content and actively engage through my own other accounts (likes, comments, retweets) = age restriction (people say UK law, but that's nonsense, my content has nothing to do with nudes).
2. I post something and have comments and likes added to it via SMM service = age restriction
3. I post something and have real people incentivized by Zealy comment and like it = age restriction, but not immediately.
4. I post something and do nothing, no intervention (same content like above) = no age restriction
5. On the post where nothing happens, (point 4) I do one of the things mentioned in points 1 to 3 = age restriction appears.

That's my experience with it. It's definitely a shadow ban. The strange thing is that the messages are different.

On one account, the message is: Due to local laws, we are temporarily restricting access to this content until X estimates your age. Learn more.

If I open the same tweet with another account, this appears: Age-restricted adult content. This content might not be appropriate for everyone. To view this media, you'll need to add your birthdate to your profile. X also uses your age to show more relevant content, including ads, as explained in our Privacy Policy. Learn more

So overall, this is a disastrous thing. I will conduct further experiments. Maybe something like “negative SEO” can be made out of it.

Hmm intresting.
Yea ive tested almost everything you posted.

I think the only solution here is to stay low. No NSFW post, Bikini? max.....if not change niche totally and try that way. But adult is best growing. Ill try Bikini images or Leggings niche with clothes. I dont think we can post nudes anymore sadly

Yes nudes are getting harder, that's for sure, but I have absolutely nothing to do with it, I'm completely in the crypto and medical field with AI. That's why I can't imagine what the problem is. It's definitely due to the activities (they trigger it), but the content also seems to be vulnerable. According to my research, everything can be interpreted as being age-restricted, so medical research in europe = not for children under 18, crypto = not for children under 18 because of finances etc. it's all a bit confusing, I haven't been able to figure it out yet.

hmm ok i thought u were in adult. Yea this flagging seems like a BS. we dont have that in our country with the AGE restrictions nor does EU? i think its only in UK. so something is really messed up here. But im suprissed this happens to you as in medicine or crypto...Sounds like they really cracked down on all niches

Yes, actually only the UK, but the whole of Europe is currently affected. The bad thing is that these tweets are simply invisible, you only see the message if someone retweets it quoted or you have the direct link to the tweet. Otherwise, the tweets are completely invisible (neither in the timeline, nor in the search or in the account).

exacly, that is the biggest issue. they are invisible. What im trying now is to Warmup 20x accounts for 5 days. Tweeet 1-2 tweets per day for 1 week, then Test with Clothes on images for 1 week and see...

Yes I think thats a good plan, good luck with this. Maybe you can drop a comment after successfully testing your method.
