X shuts down Nitter and XCancel privacy services with legal action
Privacy-focused alternatives for accessing X posts without an account have been taken offline following the platform's escalated legal pressure.
Nitter and XCancel, services that allowed users to view posts on X (formerly Twitter) without creating an account, have gone offline again following renewed legal action by X, according to TechCrunch.
The services, which provided privacy-preserving access to X's public content, have faced repeated shutdowns as X has intensified enforcement efforts against third-party tools accessing its platform.
