The official Twitter Developer's account tweets:

"Twitter is enforcing its long-standing API rules. That may result in some apps not working."

That's it. That's the tweet. No indication what rules are being enforced, despite the question being asked several times.

Developers find their apps "suspended" or unresponsive, lack Twitter contacts.
