Microblogging site Twitter has suspended the account of Indian microblogging platform Koo.
The Twitter handle @kooeminence was suspended on Friday, a development that came in the wake of billionaire Elon Musk-owned Twitter suspending the accounts of several prominent global journalists, including those from the New York Times, CNN and .
Taking to Twitter, Mayank Bidawatka, co-founder of the homegrown microblogging platform said, «I forgot. There’s more! — Banning Mastodon account. — Not allowing mastodon links saying it’s unsafe. — Banning Koo’s eminence handle. I mean seriously. How much more control does the guy need?»
Mastodon is the social media rival of Twitter.
In a series of tweets, Bidawatka questioned the rationale behind suspending the @kooeminence account, which has been set up only a few days ago for queries posed by celebrities and VIPs wanting to use the Indian social media platform.
«1. Posting publicly available info isn’t doxxing. Why shoot the messenger? 2. Journalists that posted links did nothing wrong.
