Users whose accounts were suspended, initially reported that their account or posts were reported While they might think so, Yoel Roth, Head of Site Integrity at Twitter, said it wasn’t. This was a fault of the human moderators, who judged shared posts as ‘proactive about manipulated media’. Twitter spokesperson Elizabeth Busby said:

“We proactively monitor emerging narratives that violate our policies. In this case, we took enforcement action on a series of faulty accounts. We are quickly reviewing these actions. We have proactively re-enabled access to a number of affected accounts. Claims that the errors were the result of a coordinated bot campaign or collective reporting are untrue.”
