This is your last day in the creator program,\u201d Bier said in a post. The account responded in a post on Friday, calling Bier\u2019s accusations a \u201clie\u201d and saying small accounts have asked him to repost their videos for visibility. Dom Lucre, an X user whose real name is Dominick McGee, complained on X last month he was demonetized by the platform. Bier, in response, said in a post he was demonetized for reposting AI-generated war videos. As McGee continued to post about his demonetization, Bier said his \u201ccrash out has been incredible content.\u201d McGee, who often posts misinformation and conspiracy theories, has more than 1.7 million followers and previously earned about $55,000 a year from X, the New York Times reported last year.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/coasttocoastmoverss.com\/?p=174\">Trump Making \u2018Final Determination\u2019 On Iran Deal<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>How Does X\u2019s Monetization Work?<\/h2>\n<p>X allows creators who subscribe to its premium membership program to monetize posts, provided they abide by the platform\u2019s content monetization standards, have more than 2,000 followers and have earned more than 5 million impressions across all posts within the preceding 3 months. According to X\u2019s monetization guidelines, posts that promote deceptive or illegal activity, like drugs or weapons, are prohibited from monetization, as are posts considered \u201cengagement bait\u201d or \u201crecycled or unoriginal content.\u201d Other posts that may have monetization restricted include posts about sexual content, violence, strong language or hate speech. In March, in response to a proliferation of AI-generated content about the Iran war, X implemented a new standard prohibiting monetization of AI-generated posts depicting an armed conflict, threatening to suspend creators from the revenue sharing program.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/coasttocoastmoverss.com\/?p=172\">Pam Bondi Defends Epstein Files Release To Congress\u2014But Admits \u2018Errors\u2019 (Live Updates)<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Key Background<\/h2>\n<p>X\u2019s monetization program has previously drawn criticism from users, who have said the financial incentive to post has led to the platform being flooded with \u201cslop,\u201d or low-quality content.
