We’re rolling out updates to improve transparency for Parody, Commentary, and Fan (PCF) accounts on our platform. Starting April 10, all PCF accounts will be required to include PCF-compliant keywords at the beginning of their account names and avoid using identical avatars to the entities they depict.

These requirements also apply to accounts that have the Parody label. We’re continuing to refine this label and will soon have more details on how it will replace these requirements.

These changes are designed to help users better understand the unaffiliated nature of PCF accounts and reduce the risk of confusion or impersonation. We encourage all affected accounts to update their profiles before the enforcement date.
