According to an analyst, Twitter may be about to purge 10 million users who post too much porn.

SunTrust Robinson Humphrey analyst Robert Peck and his team predicted that the microblogging platform would make the purge soon.

Business Insider reports that Peck made the prediction in a note to investors ahead of the company’s 28 April Q1 earnings call.

Peck said he was concerned that Twitter’s “basic searches” produced results full of porn, and that adverts from big name brands appeared next to other adult content.

According to Peck, Twitter is going to employ technology to find accounts posting porn, and will disable them.
