While sharing the news, Bidawatka slammed Twitter and Elon Musk for a series of account suspensions. On Twitter, Bidawatka wrote, I forgot. There’s more! – Banning Mastodon account. – Not allowing mastodon links saying it’s unsafe. – Banning Koo’s eminence handle. I mean seriously. How much more control does the guy need?”

Bidawatka’s series of tweets

Koo’s Account suspension: In a series of tweets, Bidawatka questioned the rationale behind suspending the @kooeminence account, which has been set up only a few days ago for queries posed by celebrities and VIPs wanting to use the Indian social media platform.

  1. Posting publicly available info isn’t doxxing. Why shoot the messenger?
  2. Journalists that posted links did nothing wrong. Posting a link to publicly available info isn’t doxxing the way posting a link to an online article isn’t plagiarism,” Koo co-founder Bidawtka said.
  3. Leaving spaces without answering journalists is bad.
  4. Creating policies out of thin air to suit yourself is worse.
  5. Changing your stance every other day is inconsistent.
  6. Posting a video of an unknown car on Twitter with the car plate showing – how’s that allowed?” he added.
  7. Killing spaces overnight to control conversations.

In addition, Bidawatka clarified, “What’s more, guess what! Suddenly. Almost overnight, the hashtag #ElonIsDestroyingTwitter was removed from the trending section. Twitter is a publishing platform. It’s no longer a platform!”

This comes just a day after Twitter suspended the accounts of about a half-dozen prominent journalists who have been covering the social media site and Musk, citing violations of “doxxing” rules.
