The musician's account was suspended in December for violating the platform's rules on inciting violence.
X, formerly known as Twitter, has reinstated Kanye West's account on the social media platform. West will not be able to monetize his account, and no ads will appear next to his posts, the company told the Wall Street Journal on Saturday.
Twitter has long been embroiled in questions surrounding moderation, with the platform's CEO Elon Musk describing himself as a "free speech absolutist." After agreeing to buy the company last October, he said Twitter would "be very reluctant to delete things" and "be very cautious with permanent bans."
This approach, in part, requires the team to "proactively prevent ads from appearing adjacent to content" labeled as violative.
