Elon Musk, Twitter CEO said any Twitter handles engaging in impersonation without clearly specifying “parody” will be permanently suspended”, without a warning.
In another tweet, Musk said Twitter previously issued a warning before suspension, but as Twitter is rolling out widespread verification, there will be no warning as well as "no exceptions."
"This will be clearly identified as a condition for signing up to Twitter Blue," Musk said.
“Any name change at all” would result in the temporary loss of a verified checkmark, Musk wrote.
On Sunday evening, several accounts that had changed their name to Elon Musk or approximations of Elon Musk appeared to be suspended or placed behind a warning sign.
