How to remove posts and accounts from X (Twitter)
To get a post removed from X you report it under the right policy: private information, impersonation, copyright or abuse; each has its own form.
What X removes
- Private information: home address, phone, ID and financial details, images of private individuals shared without consent
- Non-consensual nudity: real or AI-generated intimate images
- Impersonation: accounts that misleadingly pose as you or your brand
- Copyright and trademark infringement
- Abuse and threats
Step by step
- Copy the post URL and screenshot it, as it may be deleted.
- Use "Report post" and pick the policy.
- For impersonation and copyright, use the Help Center forms; X may ask for ID or proof of rights.
- If your own account was restricted, see X account suspended.
Frequently asked questions
Can I report without an X account?
