Twitter Porn Purge May Be Coming: 'The Daily Beast'

LOS ANGELES — In an article by former adult star Aurora Snow published on TheDailyBeast.com today, she writes that a tech analyst claims that Twitter is about to purge up to 10 million users that post pornographic material.

Titled "Twitter’s Great Porn Purge of 2015: Porn Stars and XXX Companies Fear the Worst," Snow reports that SunTrust Robinson Humphrey tech analyst, Robert Peck, recently forecasted the porn Twitter doomsday.

Peck made the prediction in a note to investors ahead of Twitter's April 28 Q1 earnings call, UK.BusinessInsider.com reported.

Snow got reactions from several current adult entertainment personalities, including Mercedes Carrera, Glenn King, Alex Chance, Leya Falcon and Missy Martinez.

Falcon remarked, "To block my freedom of expression and not be able to show the world what I am doing when I was previously able to post anything without fear of being kicked off? That’s going to hurt.”
