Elon Mask revives the account of the journalist who reported the freezing of ElonJet as a result of the vote, and at the same time, the far right account also revives in large numbers and declares 'Friday of Freedom'



Since Elon Musk became CEO of Twitter, he has unfrozen tens of thousands of accounts with freedom of speech, while the account 'ElonJet ( @ElonJet)”, and the accounts of multiple journalists who reported the news were frozen one after another, raising concerns about its instability. A few days later, Musk unfrozen the journalist's account as voted by Twitter users, but some accounts remained frozen, and political accounts that had been frozen in the past had nothing to do with the case. Various problems have been pointed out, such as the resurgence of a large number of

The 'ElonJet (@ElonJet)' account operated by Jack Sweeney, a college student living in Florida, tracks Mr. Mask's private jet information by analyzing information published by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). In the past, I have been contacted by Mr. Mask, such as being presented with a hush fee directly. Then, around the morning of December 14, 2022, ElonJet and Mr. Sweeney's personal accounts were frozen, and at the same time, Twitter Safety also tweeted that ``sharing other people's location information in real time is prohibited''.

The news that ElonJet was frozen was covered in unison by numerous media outlets. However, between the day after the report and two days later, it was reported that media journalists such as CNN, Washington Post, and New York Times had their Twitter accounts frozen.

After freezing the journalist's account, Mr. Mask conducted a questionnaire asking, 'When should these accounts be unfrozen?' At first, voting was done with the options of ``now'', ``tomorrow'', ``after 7 days'', and ``after 7 days'', about 535,000 people voted, and ``now'' was the most voted, 43%. However, since the runner-up was ``after 7 days'' with 38.1% and the highest number of votes did not exceed the majority, Mr. Musk said, ``I have too many options, so I will start again.'' We re-voted with the option of 'after 7 days'. As a result, about 3.69 million people voted, and 58.7% voted 'right now.'




Shortly after the poll ended, Mr. Musk began unfreezing journalist accounts.




Mr. Mask said, ``We will unfreeze immediately according to the will of the people,'' but at the time of writing the article, not everything was completed. have been confirmed multiple times.




It has also been reported that when unfreezing, the user was notified that ``Your account has been suspended for violating Twitter's rules. It was the same as before that the post was requested to be deleted along with the notification when it was frozen, but this time, ``The journalist only reported on ElonJet's account freeze, did not track Mr. Mask's private life, and tracked his private life. CNN reporter Oliver Darcy points out that it is subject to debate because it has objected that it has not disclosed the details of ElonJet.




Along with this incident, Twitter has updated its policy to prohibit sharing 'real-time location information' and 'links to URLs that expose movement routes' on Twitter. 'We will not make exceptions to this policy for journalists or other accounts,' said Ella Irwin, Twitter's head of trust and safety. It shows that And while ElonJet is live on non-Twitter social media accounts and sites, Twitter blocks links to social network rival Mastodon from being added to Twitter profiles.

In line with the termination of the journalist's account, Twitter Safety said, 'We have identified several policies where permanent suspension is a disproportionate treatment for violations of Twitter's rules. We have suspended accounts for violations of these policies. We are starting to bring back , and plan to expand to more accounts each week for the next 30 days.'



But on the other hand, just hours before the journalist's account was unfrozen after the poll, former congressional candidate Laverne Spicer commented, ``The pace of account resurrection on Twitter is accelerating.'' In response, Mr. Mask has declared 'Freedom Friday' on December 17, 2022. The account reactivations here are not related to ElonJet, they include right-wing and far-right celebrities, and Twitter Safety has begun reactivating accounts that have been suspended for policy violations, and many accounts will be reinstated over the next 30 days. It is unclear whether 'planned to expand to' is about ElonJet or about unfreezing with 'freedom of speech' by Mr. Mask.
