As many blue-check owning and celebrity consumers on Twitter modified accounts mimicking the latest Elon Musk (who is the new owner of the social network), he moved toward a rapid modification to policy administration. On Sunday, Musk noted that the platform will now onward permanently terminate the accounts of the impersonators without issuing a caution whether they have not been categorized as parodies.

Musk Declares Putting a Permanent Ban on Impersonating Accounts

A Twitter thread was shared on Sunday in which Musk (the CEO of SpaceX, Tesla, and Twitter) appeared to modify his view on constant prohibitions. He noted that any of the Twitter handles involved in impersonation with no clear specification of “parody” will witness a constant suspension. He added that the platform had issued cautions in advance of suspensions however following a strict verification, no caution will be issued.

According to Musk, the respective condition is specified for those who subscribe to Twitter Blue. In his words, any name change will result in the loss of the blue verified checkmark. Previously in May this year, following his agreement to purchase the social media venue, Musk debated against the permanent prohibitions and mentioned that in the case of Donald Trump this would be reversed. The former US president’s account had been prohibited by Twitter during the revolt at the Capital of the United States on the 6th of January.

This move was taken while Twitter posts of Trump would provoke more violence. On that occasion, Trump declared not to return to the social network. The accomplishment of the $44B Twitter takeover by Musk took place on the 28th of the previous month. In advance of that event, the rules of the social media venue had not allowed the consumers to impersonate institutions, groups, or individuals to deceive, confuse, or mislead others.

The rules additionally not permitted the clients to utilize fake identities to disrupt the other Twitter consumers’ experience. According to the former rules of the firm, it was obligatory for the customers getting involved in parody to distinguish their accounts from the original ones in both the bio as well as their account names. In the case of exact impersonation, Twitter formerly specified 3 potential measures taking into account a permanent suspension, a temporary suspension, or a profile moderation.

The venue would not straightly put a constant prohibition over an account over impersonation in advance of Musk’s entry. The respective decision of the latest Twitter owner has stimulated chaos and controversy, partly because Musk has been proselytizing himself to be an absolutist for free speech.

Twitter Lays off 3,700 Experts as Musk’s Entry

In the previous week, Musk jabbed the activists such as the civil rights promoters who asked the advertisers to halt expenditure on the social media giant till its new CEO guarantees to offer safety and trust. After acquiring Twitter, Musk dismissed nearly 3,700 people throughout diverse departments taking into account the experts dealing with safety, trust, and content moderation.
