@AmericanMuck Interesting. I followed you, after I saw the tweet above, and was instantly locked out of my account and presented with an Arkose Challenge, just now. The good news is that I knew to click on the little symbol on top and take the auditory challenge.

For those who haven't seen it, yet, that's what one sees ...

@AmericanMuck ... after one passes one of those challenges; a suggestion that one broke the rules before one got the challenge. A challenge that often proves next to impossible for those who don't know to take the auditory instead of the visual challenge.
@AmericanMuck I even got a message from TwitterX headquarters telling me
"We’ve added a temporary label to your account which may impact its reach. Learn more here"
When I click on to "learn more," the screen greys out and locks until I reload it, and I see this message ...

You may not engage in behaviors that manipulate X or artificially impact how content is discovered and amplified.
What does this mean for my account?

Our automated systems sometimes make mistakes and we are working to improve them."
There's no "mistake" being made when the action is intentional, as common sense would suggest this one was.

@AmericanMuck Musk runs D.O.G.E., owns Twitter and oh, look ... accounts are being threatened and damaged when they merely follow somebody who goes to court with him.
That's no accident, and nobody should be fooled by the claim that it is.

@AmericanMuck Just thought that you should know that this has been going on. If you haven't established a presence on Bluesky and the other Xitter competitors, now might be a good time.
Elon, obviously, isn't all about the transparency.
