Yes, they changed their https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/hacked-materials https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/hacked-materi... according to https://techcrunch.com/2020/10/16/twitter-changes-its-hacked-materials-policy-in-wake-of-new-york-post-controversy/ https://techcrunch.com/2020/10/16/twitter-changes-its-hacked...

- pcwalton 4y agoThe explanation is in the article. Twitter's policy changes around hacked materials didn't apply retroactively, so it didn't affect the suspension of the New York Post's account, which occurred because of violations of the hacked materials policy that happened before the change.
- Dylan16807 4y agoThat particular explanation is awful. Changes newly allowing things should almost always be retroactive.
