A user of X (formerly Twitter) in Malaysia allegedly received a message from the social media platform about a government request concerning one of his posts.
The post in question? Calling Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil a "bloody moron."
The user, who goes by the handle @yindian5, showed a screenshot of a message he supposedly received from X/Twitter.
According to X's rules and policies guide, X will notify users of requests for their account information.
The message said that "in the interest of transparency", the social media platform apparently received a "request" from the Malaysian government about content that violates Malaysian law.
