For posterity, those journalists were banned (unbanned a few months later) for just reporting on ElonJet, who used publicly available FAA data to track Elon's jet. Elon called it doxxing. And also temporarily banned links to Mastodon just to prevent people from accessing ElonJet that way.

Good point, they were all related as bans resulting from reporting or tweeting about the elonjet ban. I edited my comment accordingly since it’s important context to know the ones I mentioned were all related to a single event (though he’s silenced others as well for different reasons too)

How embarrassing, I have never heard of those people! Here are some journalists or whistleblowers I have heard of:

- Daniel Ellsberg - Julian Assange - Glenn Greenwald - Seymour Hirsch - Chelsea Manning
