This provision caps X's total financial liability to a user at $100 USD (or six-month payment amount) and excludes the most common categories of harm users may experience from platform conduct, including loss of data, loss of goodwill, and third-party defamatory or illegal content. The EU/EFTA/UK version of the terms states only that liability is limited to 'the maximum extent permissible in your country of residence,' which preserves the application of local consumer protection law caps rather than asserting a flat $100 limit.
⚠ Users who accept the terms accept the $100 aggregate liability cap for all claims as stated, absent a successful legal challenge to the cap's enforceability in their jurisdiction
