It all started when Libs of TikTok reported to Elon that she was being shadowbanned.
Hi @elonmusk, these are just some of the messages I received in the past week. I’ve been shadowbanned for weeks now. Is there a reason why accounts are still getting throttled like this in Twitter 2.0? pic.twitter.com/76fnJiTG8f

Elon was good enough to respond. Then it appeared that he revealed ... a secret.
Your account was labeled as NSFW by our d*ck pic bot on 6/26, because you posted media with nudity from Pride parades.
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 9, 2023
Corrective action is to label the individual posts as NSFW, rather than the whole account. Should be fixed now.
Chaya Raichik, the founder of Libs of TikTok was amused.

And because Twitter is so much fun, Tweeps could not resist.

Don't lie, you saw this one coming.
Imagine being the software engineer that had to build that.

We are. And we're laughing.
Who knew posting a pic of Jake laying on his back and inadvertently showing his ding dong would trip the d*ck pic bot trap? https://t.co/PrnI3OQovF pic.twitter.com/ajC59jVPNn

Is your pooch NSFW?

Yes, they went there.

Subtle. IYKYK.
You hired Chelsea Handler?

Pushing the algo to the limit here.
There were lots of visual memes as you might imagine. But since we're a family site here, we'll leave that to your imagination.
D*ck pic bot doesn’t catch them all https://t.co/E9yu9zakqV pic.twitter.com/FWYtVEuZDH

See? Fun for the whole family!
I believe the "d*ck pic bot" has been freed from its cage to roam hither and yon about the platform doing its important work.

As in, its off on its own, doing its own thing, so to speak.
And now we're scared.
UPDATE: The saga continues!
