December 20, 2022: -Elon Musk is reinstating the Twitter handles of many journalists suspended for a day over a controversy over publishing public data about the billionaire’s plane.
The reinstatements after the unprecedented suspension evoked stinging criticism from administration officials, advocacy groups and journalism organizations from many parts of the globe on Friday, with a few saying the microblogging areas were jeopardizing press freedom.
“The people have talked about it. Accounts who doxxed my location have a suspension lifted at present,” Musk said in a tweet on Saturday.
A Reuters check stated that the suspended accounts, including journalists from the New York Times, CNN, and the Washington Post, are reinstated.
People from France, Germany, Britain, and the European Union earlier condemned the suspensions.
