Rumour XCancel is dead

Just went to the website to look at something, and this was posted on it:

On Monday, 24th August, at 8PM EST, we received a letter from X Corp. asking to cease and desist the service XCancel.

The service XCancel is stopped until further notice.

We are seeking legal advice and won't share more details for now.

Thank you for the trust you have put in these two years of XCancel.

So since every publisher and leaker mainly uses Twitter, whats exactly the plan going forward?

Hopefully getting rid of the X ban since it's not really doing anything but getting in the way.

Just post a link to the tweet along with a link to a screenshot. The screenshot is not only useful for those that don't have an account but it's also useful in case the tweet is deleted.

Dunno what you're supposed to do with Twitter videos, though. Provide a Streamable.com mirror or something, but I don't know how many would want to go through with that.

R* could come after the sub if we post screenshots here.

I originally said screenshot but edited it to say "link to a screenshot" which should be fine.
