Parody labels will be applied to both posts and accounts on X to clearly demonstrate the source of the content you’re seeing.

Musk announced in 2022 that parody accounts would need to mark themselves as such or risk a permanent suspension.

The labels are designed to increase transparency and ensure users are not deceived into thinking such accounts belong to the entity being parodied.
