X changes its policy around 'newsworthy' posts that would otherwise break rules
 

Until now, the company would only grant a newsworthiness exception to accounts that had at least 100,000 followers. X has removed that threshold, as TechCrunch reports. The latest version of the policy stipulates that “high profile” accounts are eligible for a newsworthiness exception. The account in question also needs to represent "a current or potential member of a local, state, national or supra-national governmental or legislative body." Only elected officials and government figures have historically been eligible for the exemption.
