Hi @[email protected]

You have banned linking to your social media competitors, including via link aggregators

I'd like to report that @[email protected] is in direct violation of this policy

Or is this rule only going to be applied against your ideological enemies?

Thanks,

Judd

This particular rule is even more poorly thought out than the other rules that Musk is making on the fly. It says you can't link to many alternative social networks. I do have accounts on Mastodon and Post, am I allowed to mention that? Or will that get me suspended?

Further, before this rule was in place, I have tweeted links to those accounts, am I now required to go through my timeline of 70K+ tweets and see if anything I've ever tweeted violates the rule that Musk made up this morning?

@juddlegum If old tweets to those platforms are a violation, that would be crazier than crazy.

But it would be consistent, right? If they are going to ban people for past actions, past tweets would be open for scrutiny as well.

@neilparekh @juddlegum Taylor Lorenz was suspended on that rule for a tweet made before the rule was announced. It is actually happening.
