Medikal’s Twitter account got suspended after a Sarknative (a fan of rapper Sarkodie) snitched on him by reporting the account.
The new owner of Twitter, Elon Musk has earlier announced and issued a warning to Twitter accounts that impersonate someone else without adding Parody risks suspension.
He tweeted a few days ago, “Going forward, any Twitter handles engaging in impersonation without clearly specifying “parody” will be permanently suspended”.
“Previously, we issued a warning before the suspension, but now that we are rolling out widespread verification, there will be no warning. This will be clearly identified as a condition for signing up to Twitter Blue”.
“Any name change at all will cause temporary loss of verified checkmark”.
