Check a video freeWhat triggers it
Frames, text or speech that expose another person's private information without permission: home address or GPS location, government ID numbers, private phone or email, bank or card details, medical records, or the identity of an anonymous account.
What X says
“home address or physical location information, such as street addresses, GPS coordinates, or other identifying information related to locations that are considered private”
How to fix it
Blur house numbers, street signs, documents, screens and package labels; do not read numbers aloud; remove location tags that point to a private home.
Good to know
Look for house numbers with street signs, package labels, documents, screens, ID cards, card numbers, phone numbers read aloud. Your own information is fine. Names, workplaces and business addresses are not private. X may act on home addresses even if they are public elsewhere.
