Last week, @X sued several people who abused Creator Revenue Sharing by operating a coordinated network of accounts, posting inauthentic content to manipulate engagement, and using multiple bank accounts to hide their scheme.
We do not tolerate fraudulent behavior on X -- and will act forcefully to protect our platform and the earnings of genuine creators.

It is easy to point fingers at ether family and ask who should have taken better care of him. But perhaps the greater tragedy is that we still struggle to recognize when physical illness, emotional distress and declining mental well-being begin to overlap.
A photograph alone cannot establish a mental-health condition. But if, as has been reported, this man had been seriously unwell for some time, then the question should go beyond which wife cared for him and which one did not. Was his deterioration recognized? Did the people closest to him understand how vulnerable he had become? And was appropriate medical and psychological help sought?
In a polygamous family, particularly where there are unresolved tensions between co-wives, accusations of neglect, favoritism and abandonment can easily consume everyone. But when someone becomes seriously vulnerable, effective care requires the family to rise above those rivalries.
There is also a much deeper lesson here about the people we entrust with our lives. As we grow older, our independence may gradually diminish, and we may eventually depend on others to notice what we ourselves can no longer recognize or communicate. At that point, having people around us is not enough. We need people with the awareness, empathy and presence of mind to recognize vulnerability and act when something is wrong.
Perhaps that is one of life’s uncomfortable truths: the consciousness of the people around us can eventually matter almost as much as our own. You may spend a lifetime building a family, providing for others and making your own decisions, only to reach a stage when your dignity depends partly on whether those closest to you understand what is happening to you.
A man who raised a family and had grown children deserved dignity, protection and attentive care in his final chapter. This should therefore be bigger than the story of the first wife versus the second wife. It should make all of us think about illness, aging and vulnerability and, perhaps most importantly, about whom we trust to recognize and protect our humanity when we are no longer fully able to do it ourselves.
A new DRC study will track 20,000 frontline workers to determine whether the existing ERVEBO vaccine protects against Bundibugyo Ebola.
Its effectiveness against this strain is not yet established.
This is an urgent scientific test not proof that the vaccine already works
