Just so you guys know - censorship and bans on Twitter are not at all a thing of the past in the Elon Musk era. There is, of course:
https://twitter.com/JulianAssange https://twitter.com/JulianAssange
which is still "Account suspended"
but also new suspensions/bans, e.g. left-wing commentator Garland Nixon:

and additional examples.

- einpoklum 4y agoFor those who don't know what @ElonJet is: It is not a human's account, it is an account where a bot posts locations in the world of Elon Musk's jet (which it gets using publicly-accessible data). TBH, I believe that bot activity regulation and censorship of people are two distinct issues. Still, the search-shadowbanning of @ElonJet is quite inappropriate.
