Among the journalists who were kicked off Twitter were:

Matt Binder, reporter for pop culture website Mashable
Micha F. Lee, correspondent for the Intercept
Drew Harwell of the Washington Post
Ryan Mac, technology correspondent for the New York Times
Donie O’Sullivan, technology reporter for CNN
Keith Olbermann, sports broadcaster and former MSNBC host
Aaron Rupar, former contributor to Vox Media
Anthony Webster, freelance investigative reporter at Bellingcat
A review of some affected accounts showed users had linked to a profile on the website Mastodon that published updates about a private airplane used by Musk. This week, Musk announced a new policy at Twitter that forbids posting information about a person’s location in real-time.

The policy came several weeks after Musk affirmed he would not take action against a specific account that tweeted the location of his personal jet based on open-source information. That account moved to Mastodon after Musk reversed his position.

Chères nouvelles personnes venant de #Twitter, on est ravi de vous accueillir, c'est pas évident pour nous, on est pas des entreprises mais de simples personnes.

Derrière chaque instance Mastodon/Pleroma/etc il y a un serveur, qui a une certaine capacité, et nous vous rendons attentive au fait que vous avez débarqué par milliers en l'espace de quelques jours, ce qui augmente considérablement la charge côté serveur:
+ d'envois de mails
+ d'échanges entre instances
+ de timeline à calculer

Here on Mastodon people have been escaping Twitter in droves.

But back over on Twitter, Elon Musk has been making his most explicitly political tweets yet.

He's using the platform to tell people to vote Republican, just one day before the mid-terms 🗳
