The new policy for the parody accounts, Mr. Elon Musk, has stated, ‘Previously, we issued a warning before the suspension, but now that we are rolling out widespread verification, there will be no warning.
He further added that ‘any name change at all will cause temporary loss of verified checkmark.’
In a tweet on Twitter, he wrote, ‘Going forward, and any Twitter handles engaging in impersonation without clearly specifying ‘parody’ will be permanently suspended.’
There were several accounts that were impersonating Elon Musk on Twitter. One of those accounts included US comedian Kathy Griffin and former NFL player Chris Kluwe.
Also, some other accounts that were parodying ex-President of the US, Donald Trump by comedian Tim Heidecker, will be suspended soon, as per the reports.
Last week, Mr. Musk opposed the permanent bans on Twitter, which also included Mr. Trump’s official account. He said that banned accounts wouldn’t be getting unbanned until there’s a clear process for doing it.
