How to Bypass "Withheld" Restriction on Twitter/X? [TUTORIAL]

On Twitter/X, we may encounter restrictions depending on our country or the X account we want to visit. Two typical error messages may then occur: 

1. "X account withheld" 
2. "X country withheld content" 

Fortunately, there is a trick to unblock these restrictions and enjoy X without any blocking. The steps and instructions in this article will help you bypass these X errors easily.

Why do "Withheld" errors show up on X?

"X account withheld" or "X country withheld content" errors appear on X when the content of a particular X account or tweet is restricted or unavailable in certain countries due to local laws and regulations. 

If you are in another country, you may have better luck accessing the tweet or X account without any errors. Usually, X gives us the list of countries where an account is restricted as is the case below.

These errors may be due to legal demands, government censorship, or for other reasons, and the content can only be viewed by users in countries where it is not restricted.
