Elon Musk has suspended several journalists’ accounts for doxxing which is against Twitter’s rules. They are not happy about it.
State of play: The notice that appears on the now-suspended accounts reads: “Twitter suspends accounts that violate the Twitter Rules.” […]
In response to a tweet about the suspensions, Musk indicated that the accounts violated Twitter’s doxxing policy, which he revealed Wednesday after suspending an account that actively tracked his private jet.
Several of the suspended journalists’ accounts had allegedly tweeted links to the jet tracker. “Same doxxing rules apply to ‘journalists’ as to everyone else,” Musk tweeted.

What they’re saying: “The impulsive and unjustified suspensions of a number of reporters, including CNN’s Donie O’Sullivan, is concerning but not surprising,” CNN said in a statement. “Twitter’s increasing instability and volatility should be of incredible concern to everyone who uses the platform. We have asked Twitter for an explanation.”
