Musk suspends 9 journalists for doxing him

Musk suspended the accounts of at least nine journalists who he said tweeted links to an account which tracks the movements of his private jet, an action he likened to posting 'assassination coordinates.'

Journalists Ryan Mac of the New York Times, Drew Harwell of The Washington Post, Donie O'Sullivan of CNN, Matt Binder of Mashable, Michah Lee of The Intercept, Steven Herman of VOA, along with Aaron Rupar, Tony Webster, and Keith Olberman, all found their Twitter accounts suspended on Thursday.

Following the suspensions, CNN posted a statement saying it had asked Twitter to explain, and that it would 'reevaluate our relationship based on that response.'

Musk took to Twitter Thursday night to accuse the suspended journalists of doxxing him - the act of revealing identifying personal information online.

'They posted my exact real-time location, basically assassination coordinates, in (obvious) direct violation of Twitter terms of service,' he wrote.

'Same doxxing rules apply to “journalists” as to everyone else,' he added, and noted that the suspension would last seven days.

Doxing is very dangerous.
These Far Left Democrat "activists" are violent fanatics.
The crazy liberal Democrats did the same thing to Judge Kavanagh after the controversial hate monger Democrat Senator Chuck Schumer incited violence against the Supreme Court.
The Left's hatred for Freedom of Speech is another indication that the Democrats are dangerous police state totalitarians.
They fear Freedom of Speech because the truth will destroy them.

Sadly, he wouldn't have had to do this if the left weren't so violent.
 
What happened to Twitter not supporting illegal activities which are potentially very dangerous and also crude and vulgar in decent circles ?

Nothing has happened to it. But thanks for the deflection.
