> While we don’t know what’s going on here yet, it’s possible that the suspensions are the result of automated content moderation gone awry. Some of the suspended accounts shared Mastodon and ElonJet’s Twitter handles as well as images of the tweet that appears to have gotten the former account suspended.

Automation gone crazy. I'm likely to believe this explanation rather than Musk personally hitting the "suspend" button on stuff he doesn't like.

Wouldn't be too sure about that:

> Same doxxing rules apply to “journalists” as to everyone else

If the algorithm is suspending accounts that shared screenshots Elon doesn't like (matching via checksum) then it's banning regardless if the account belongs to a journalist or not.

Which is bad, because the supposed policy has a specific media exemption.
