Binder said he can\u2019t see his notifications, DMs, and he can\u2019t tweet, but he\u2019s able to speak in a Twitter Space. Binder said he received a notification that his account is permanently in read-only mode.<\/p>\n<div id class=\"bxm4mm-6 dIYVrz js_ad-mobile-dynamic js_ad-dynamic ad-mobile-dynamic movable-ad\">\n<div class=\"bxm4mm-8 dpxQKd ad-unit ad-mobile\">\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">Jack Sweeney, the 20-year-old college student in Florida who ran the ElonJet account, also spoke during the Twitter Spaces conversation with journalists. Sweeney speculated that journalists were being banned because CNN\u2019s Donie O\u2019Sullivan had reached out to the LAPD, which claimed a police report had never been filed about an incident involving someone supposedly stalking Musk\u2019s 2-year-old child.<\/p>\n<div id class=\"bxm4mm-6 dIYVrz js_ad-mobile-dynamic js_ad-dynamic ad-mobile-dynamic movable-ad\">\n<div class=\"bxm4mm-8 dpxQKd ad-unit ad-mobile\">\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">\u201cI think it all started with that Donie O\u2019Sullivan. He put that thing where they said they didn\u2019t file a [police] report,\u201d Sweeney said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">The Twitter Spaces conversation hosted by Notopoulos continued after Musk left the chat but it appears to have been killed around 12:13 a.m. ET on Friday, as Notopoulos was mid-sentence.<\/p>\n<div id class=\"bxm4mm-6 dIYVrz js_ad-mobile-dynamic js_ad-dynamic ad-mobile-dynamic movable-ad\">\n<div class=\"bxm4mm-8 dpxQKd ad-unit ad-mobile\">\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">Musk has previously called himself a \u201cfree speech absolutist,\u201d but Twitter\u2019s rules have never been more restrictive than since he took over. The only people who seem to get carte blanche on the platform these days are anti-Muslim bigots, far-right insurrectionists, and literal neo-Nazis.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">A small sample of people who\u2019ve been reinstated since Musk took over:<\/p>\n<ul data-type=\"List\" data-style=\"Bullet\" class=\"sc-1lmbno3-0 dpuHif\">\n<li>Baked Alaska (<span><a class=\"sc-1out364-0 hMndXN sc-145m8ut-0 cFSTdr js_link\" data-ga=\"[[&quot;Embedded Url&quot;,&quot;External link&quot;,&quot;https:\/\/twitter.com\/paleofuture\/status\/1601604527513563136&quot;,{&quot;metric25&quot;:1}]]\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/paleofuture\/status\/1601604527513563136\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">neo-Nazi<\/a><\/span>, real name Tim Gionet)<\/li>\n<li>Andrew Anglin (founder of the <span><a class=\"sc-1out364-0 hMndXN sc-145m8ut-0 cFSTdr js_link\" data-ga=\"[[&quot;Embedded Url&quot;,&quot;External link&quot;,&quot;https:\/\/www.splcenter.org\/fighting-hate\/extremist-files\/individual\/andrew-anglin&quot;,{&quot;metric25&quot;:1}]]\" href=\"https:\/\/www.splcenter.org\/fighting-hate\/extremist-files\/individual\/andrew-anglin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Daily Stormer<\/a><\/span> neo-Nazi site)<\/li>\n<li>Laura Loomer (anti-Muslim <span><a class=\"sc-1out364-0 hMndXN sc-145m8ut-0 cFSTdr js_link\" data-ga=\"[[&quot;Embedded Url&quot;,&quot;External link&quot;,&quot;https:\/\/twitter.com\/paleofuture\/status\/1601545455711948801&quot;,{&quot;metric25&quot;:1}]]\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/paleofuture\/status\/1601545455711948801\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">bigot<\/a><\/span>)<\/li>\n<li>Roger Stone (former Trump advisor, professional <span><a class=\"sc-1out364-0 hMndXN sc-145m8ut-0 cFSTdr js_link\" data-ga=\"[[&quot;Embedded Url&quot;,&quot;External link&quot;,&quot;https:\/\/www.politico.com\/magazine\/story\/2019\/01\/25\/roger-stone-and-rating-a-short-history-224218\/&quot;,{&quot;metric25&quot;:1}]]\" href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/magazine\/story\/2019\/01\/25\/roger-stone-and-rating-a-short-history-224218\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ratfucker<\/a><\/span>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">\u201cTonight\u2019s suspension of the Twitter accounts of a number of prominent journalists, including The New York Times\u2019s Ryan Mac, is questionable and unfortunate,\u201d the New York Times said in a statement published on <span><a class=\"sc-1out364-0 hMndXN sc-145m8ut-0 cFSTdr js_link\" data-ga=\"[[&quot;Embedded Url&quot;,&quot;External link&quot;,&quot;https:\/\/twitter.com\/farhip\/status\/1603574676592201728&quot;,{&quot;metric25&quot;:1}]]\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/farhip\/status\/1603574676592201728\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Twitter<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n<div id class=\"bxm4mm-6 dIYVrz js_ad-mobile-dynamic js_ad-dynamic ad-mobile-dynamic movable-ad\">\n<div class=\"bxm4mm-8 dpxQKd ad-unit ad-mobile\">\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">\u201cNeither The Times nor Ryan have received any explanation about why this occurred. We hope that all of the journalists\u2019 accounts are reinstated and that Twitter provides a satisfying explanation for this action,\u201d the Times continued.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">Musk created a Twitter poll asking if and when he should reinstate the journalists who were banned for tweeting about the ElonJets account. But after his first poll showed that most people wanted the journalists to be reinstated \u201cnow,\u201d Musk apparently didn\u2019t like that result.<\/p>\n<div id class=\"bxm4mm-6 dIYVrz js_ad-mobile-dynamic js_ad-dynamic ad-mobile-dynamic movable-ad\">\n<div class=\"bxm4mm-8 dpxQKd ad-unit ad-mobile\">\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">\u201cSorry, too many options, will redo the poll,\u201d Musk tweeted.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">Obviously, whatever results Musk is <!-- -->receiving from his new poll will be ignored until he gets the answer he\u2019s looking for. But it\u2019s a very bizarre dance to do. Everyone knows there are no consistent rules at Twitter anymore, just the whims of a billionaire. But Musk seems to need validation that what he\u2019s choosing is popular and that he himself is personally liked. <\/p>\n<div id class=\"bxm4mm-6 dIYVrz js_ad-mobile-dynamic js_ad-dynamic ad-mobile-dynamic movable-ad\">\n<div class=\"bxm4mm-8 dpxQKd ad-unit ad-mobile\">\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">And he\u2019ll keep it up\u2014banning journalists and enacting strange rules after the fact to rationalize his decision\u2014until he finally feels that validation. Sadly for him, it will never be enough.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\"><em>Updated at 11:10 p.m. ET to include Matt Binder and Jack Sweeney\u2019s participation in a Twitter Spaces
