[X Issues Cease-and-Desist Letter to Open-Source Project Nitter, Demands Closure of Related Instances and Code Repository] According to Deep Tide TechFlow on August 26, as reported by TechCrunch, the open-source project Nitter has received a cease-and-desist letter from X, demanding the permanent shutdown of Nitter instances and its project code repository. Nitter allows users to browse public X posts without logging in or opening the X app, while removing ads, tracking cookies, and JavaScript. X accuses Nitter of illegally using and circumventing its application programming interface and related data, allegedly scraping X data, accessing accounts, and session tokens, thereby violating platform rules and relevant laws. The Nitter project website indicates that its main site has gone offline, development work has been temporarily halted, and the project creator is seeking legal advice. Previously, X had employed technical measures to restrict Nitter's operations.
