TL;DR Summary

X has restored the search function for Taylor Swift after it was blocked due to nonconsensual sexually explicit deepfakes of the singer circulating on the platform. The search for Swift on X now pulls up results as normal, but the search for "Taylor Swift AI" remains blocked. The deepfakes, which depicted Swift in nude and sexual scenarios, prompted her fans to mass report the images and flood the hashtag with positive messages about her. X's head of business operations stated that they will continue to be vigilant for any attempt to spread such content and will remove it if found.
