One of them said that they would upload their OnlyFans videos on Twitter.

Meanwhile, others just want to upload longer versions of their favorite meme videos (some already did).

Since the new enhancement enables the upload of videos that are too long, many users now believe that Twitter could be used to upload movies.

"Twitter is the new Netflix," a Twitter user said in the comment section.

Meanwhile, some users believe the new Twitter Blue improvement will benefit adult accounts.

Can This Lead To Movie Piracy?

Since the new Twitter Blue feature can upload videos up to 8GB, there's no denying that some users will try to upload movies.

This could lead to movie piracy. Before the Twitter Blue enhancement arrived, numerous users already used links to share films since they couldn't upload the videos.

Now that Twitter supports hour-long content, they only need to post these pirated film videos.

Of course, it is against Twitter's policy to post pirated online materials. If you want to learn more about Twitter's effort against hacked content, you can visit its official Help Center.
