To @Support We, Iranian users, firmly and unequivocally protest the widespread and baseless suspension and restriction of Iranian accounts. These suspensions are largely the result of coordinated mass reporting by bots and organizational accounts affiliated with the Islamic Republic regime — a regime widely recognized as repressive and terrorist. While our accounts are suspended over mass reporting, supporters and officials of this same regime — including Ejei, the head of the judiciary — openly threaten Iranians with execution and the harshest punishments on this very platform, yet their accounts remain active and unrestricted. This is a clear and blatant violation of the free speech principles that X claims to uphold. Our situation is not one of freely expressing opinions from a safe environment with unrestricted internet. We connect to X with great difficulty and hardship, using VPNs, at the constant risk of identification. Activity on this platform is life-threatening for us. If we are identified and arrested by the regime’s security apparatus, we face the most severe punishments — ranging from flogging and long prison sentences to execution. Yet by suspending and restricting our accounts, X is doing exactly what the regime wants: silencing the voices of protesters. We call on the X team to: - Take coordinated bot-driven reporting campaigns seriously and review suspensions resulting from them. - End the double standard. If open threats of execution and repression are tolerated on the platform, why are the voices of those targeted by these threats being removed? - Remain faithful to the principle of free speech that you have repeatedly emphasized, and stop systematically sacrificing the accounts of Iranian users who speak at the risk of their lives in the regime’s information warfare. Do not silence our voices. We are being targeted not for violating the rules, but for resisting a repressive regime. If X truly believes in free speech, it must recognize this reality and act accordingly.
