It's interesting that many are debating the value of this 'rule', when this action is blatant abuse of his powers to silence his critics. He has now a lengthy and growing history of this type of behavior, so it was 100% foreseeable. He could just come out and say that its his twitter and he can do what he wants, but no, because he also wants to be seen as a 'defender of free speech'. He acts like a-hole, but then expects unquestioning adoration.

Let me fix your reasoning. Pro government journalists suspended after trying to intimidate a powerful critic by doxxing his location. FBI likely involved.

This is completely false. Either you're blatantly lying or completely misinformed about what happened.

Saying something is false doesn't make it so. Granted , political truths can be somewhat subjective. My conclusions flow from; Elon being directly intimidated by a stalker. The politically motivated violence in the last few years, makes it completely reasonable for Elon to feel threatened to have his location released.

Keith Olbermann being a very pro government journalist, along the other journalist is true. And the FBI now having a documented history of interfering in what media companies publish ( by Twitter's own records, and Mark Zuckerberg public statements). Provides FBI motive to try to intimidate the man that help to exposed them.

There's little value in journalists carrying about releasing Elon Musks location... especially given all the journalistic principles these same "journalists" previously did not care about.
