X tightens its crackdown on content theft and engagement bait in monetization

Friends, I’d like to share an update from the world of social media and AI.

X is stepping up enforcement against creators who try to profit from other people’s content or artificially inflate engagement.

Grok is now three times better at detecting duplicates. If stolen posts are repackaged with watermarks, intros, or other edits, ad revenue will go to the original creator.

The company has already identified 1.5 million stolen posts and will return more than $1 million in payouts to creators. Repeat offenders may be removed from the creator program and referred to the policy team for review.

Why it matters: platforms are taking a much tougher stance on original content and monetization.

How do you feel about these measures?
