Twitter user @alx locked out of Twitter for posting 'intimate media' of Zelenskyy presenting Ukrainian flag

Elon Musk has promised that he’s eventually going to turn Twitter over to someone else, but we hope there’s no hurry to find the right person. Tweeter @alx, who in his bio says he was banned from Twitter in 2020 and freed by Musk in 2022, received a message Thursday that his account has been locked for violating Twitter’s rules “against posting or sharing privately produced/distributed intimate media of someone without their express consent.” What, this intimate media?

@alx tweeted the photo with the text, “Americans: I wish we had leaders who put our country first. Congress:”

This one too:

“Intimate media.”
