X, formerly Twitter, has restored Kanye West’s Twitter account after eight months. 

Rapper and businessman Kanye West is the ex-husband of Kim Kardashian, one of the most famous individuals in the US. After posting a Swastika with the Star of David, he was suspended.

Kanye West violated site rules by tweeting and posting photographs. 

He was supposedly suspended for encouraging a policy breach. The rapper may have been punished for posting an ugly photo of Elon Musk. The artist was prohibited on other grounds, according to X CEO Elon.

Kanye West hasn’t posted anything since his account was unbanned, and sources say that was because he promised not to post any more discriminatory or racist information.

Is Kanye West’s X account the first to be reinstated?

Since Musk became CEO of X, he has made some controversial decisions about restoring certain accounts and sharing them on the platform.

On the list are former US President Donald Trump, influential person Andrew Tate, who was also kicked off the site for making sexist comments, and American scholar Jordan Peterson.

X temporarily or permanently deletes accounts from its social networking service. But when popular accounts are shut down, the news usually covers it. Users who are banned from Twitter because they are thought to have broken Twitter’s rules aren’t always told which of their tweets caused the ban.

After Elon Musk bought Twitter in October 2022, it was said that the company planned to stop using permanent suspensions. Musk said in November 2022 that accounts that take part in impersonation, hate speech, and other bad things without a “clear” parody label would be shut down without warning.

Musk gave the platform the power to decide how to moderate material in November 2022. This meant that journalists like Andy Ngo could report anti-fascist accounts directly to Musk. A group that provides armed security for LGBT events, accounts that make fun of Elon Musk, and a Palestinian news site that is known for criticizing the Israeli military were all suspended.

Since X made its rules and policies, quite a few of its users’ accounts have been in trouble. Dominick McGee’s account, which had been taken away because he tweeted a picture of child abuse, was recently brought back online. However, this led to arguments.

How can you get kicked off of X?

At the beginning of this year, X made it clear that a user’s account will only be banned if they break the rules or keep breaking the rules even after the platform tells them not to. Also, if a person is permanently banned, they won’t be able to make any new content.
