'Bad liar': Elon Musk slammed for claiming journos posted ‘assassination coordinates’ amid Twitter accounts suspension
SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA: Twitter suspended some famous journalists and Mastodon on Thursday, December 15. This suspension came soon after Elon Musk shut down Elon Jet, an account that was exclusively tracking Musk's jet locations run by Jack Sweeney.
On Friday, December 16, Mike Solana, a famous media tycoon, tweeted, "so far, I’ve been able to confirm about half the accounts suspended posted links to the jet tracker thing in violation of the new doxxing policy. Unclear just yet about the rest, but I think it’s safe to say the rule is for real." To which Musk stated, "Same doxxing rules apply to “journalists” as to everyone else." Further, he added, "They posted my exact real-time location. Basically, assassination coordinates, in (obvious) direct violation of Twitter terms of service."
