X policy covers threats to share non-consensual intimate content

X's updated non-consensual intimate content policy includes threatening to distribute sexual imagery without permission. A threat may be reportable even before someone posts the threatened file, so document the actual post and context accurately.

What to do

  1. Save the exact X post URL containing the threat and the account handle.
  2. Avoid quote-posting or reposting intimate media to draw attention to the violation.
  3. Open the post's Report option on X.
  4. Choose the Private or Non-Consensual Content category and follow the prompts.
  5. Explain that the issue is a threat when that is the specific behavior, rather than saying the image was already published.
  6. Submit the report and preserve any available confirmation.
  7. If the account later posts the image, report that new material with its own exact URL.
  8. Use appropriate personal safety support if the threat involves extortion or immediate danger.
Important: Reporting, acknowledgment, a platform decision, source removal, and search removal are distinct outcomes. A report is not a guarantee of removal.

Current policy scope

X's October 2026 policy encompasses threats, manipulated sexual content and private intimate media in harmful contexts.

Report status versus removal

X can investigate, restrict visibility or remove content based on context. A submitted post report alone is not evidence the threat is gone.

Common questions

Is posting required to report a threat?

No. X's policy explicitly addresses threats to distribute qualifying non-consensual intimate content.

Can a bystander report?

X's published policy states that anyone can report this material for review.

Use a coordinated case

Reclaim keeps website removal, Google/search removal, deadlines, verification and monitoring separate so one successful step is not mistaken for complete removal.
