Social media has been called The Great Equalizer, but sex workers have had a very different experience. Camgirls claim they’ve been discriminated against by Twitter and Instagram, Vice reports. Melody Kush, the camgirl who was banned from Twitter over an exposed nipple, has been iced again from the site—except this time, there’s no obvious reason for it.
She claims to have no idea why she was banned, since she didn’t have nudity in her avatar or header. Kush and other sex workers explain that they’re subjected to “shadow bans,” an algorithmic technique that classifies certain users accounts as containing “sensitive content” and then makes them “less visible.” Camgirls rely on social media to brand themselves, and with getting “pushed off social media,” they can’t help but feel discriminated against: “they’re not discriminating our content. They’re discriminating our persons, our work and our jobs,” says Kush.
