Twitter accounts of several prominent journalists who reported on Elon Musk suspended for ‘endangering his family’

Musk has claimed anyone revealing individuals’ real-time location will be suspended as a ‘physical safety violation’, but his actions sparked accusations of an “obscene abuse of power”

Criticizing me all day long is totally fine, but doxxing my real-time location and endangering my family is notMusk said: “Criticizing me all day long is totally fine, but doxxing my real-time location and endangering my family is not.”But officials in Brussels have warned Musk the company could face sanctions "soon" after journalists were booted off the platform.

"As I'm sure everyone who's been doxxed would agree, showing real-time information about somebody's location is inappropriate, and I think everyone on this call would not like that to be done to them," he said on the live call - hosted on Twitter's Spaces service. However some users pointed out that Twitter profiles which had been banned appeared to still be able to use the Spaces function despite their suspension.

Pretty sure keeping kids safe is above hurting journos feelings

Some posted a link to publicly available information which he classed as doxxing & the rest said things he didn't like. None of them broke terms of service as I understand it It seems Musk is a bit of a Snowflake & has thin skin. Then again, he bought it, he can do what he wants

Twitter is so much more of a mess than it was.. nice to see that 'free speech' is defined by Elon Musk 🙄 Seems like he is showing signs of this new 'woke mind virus' he was telling us about..

All in the name of free speech.

They are no longer untouchables

Child stalking is bad isnt it? The journos seem to think it isnt.
