XCancel also down, at least for time being
Points and comments are a snapshot, not live.
X Corp. sent a cease and desist letter to XCancel, which has now stopped operations.
On Monday, August 24th at 8PM EST, XCancel received a cease and desist letter from X Corp. The service is stopped until further notice while seeking legal advice. No additional details were shared. XCancel thanks users for their trust over its two years of operation.
What commenters are saying
Commenters note XCancel is connected to Nitter, with some expressing disappointment at losing a way to view X accounts without an account. Some suggest using LibRedirect extension as an alternative. A few split on motivations: one criticizes virtue signaling, while others argue ethical objections to fueling Elon Musk's influence are valid, and that avoiding platforms requiring accounts is a principled choice.
