According to these rules journalists are no longer allowed to publicly share information about Elon going to visit his Saudi creditors since it's wont be public event. Nice!
Yes. According to Twitter policy there must be "24 hours" delay since it's only way to follow "not same-day" rule. This will obviously makes Twitter useless for any news reporting.
Any social network post from celebrity X who mention they just seen celebrity Y on a private party of celebrity Z? According to Elon this information about him cannot be shared on Twitter.
PS: I'm not exactly into US celebrities, but I'm very much into stalking Putin and his cronies using OSINT reporting on Twitter. Now anyone who publicly share their movements can be banned.
Maybe not a technical violation since it said "earlier today" -- but a random student tweeting the same right after seeing him on campus would get the account suspended?
A fan saying "OMG, just saw Kanye at the Whole Foods in El Segundo" would be worthy of suspension?
News stories about various public officials secret trips for negotiations would be worthy of suspension?
Or just posting that you ran into your good friend Bob this morning and roughly where would presumptively be in violation, Twitter would have no way of knowing whether Bob consented for that information to be published.
Before coalition talks in Germany there are frequently news about politicians visiting this party headquarter or that party headquarter, practically always in real time. All of those are usually not public events. There are no press conferences, nobody in the press is told about those visits (except if it leaks).
> Tweets that share someone else’s historical (not same-day) location information are also not prohibited by this policy.
Seems like the rules would allow journalists to share a story reporting if Elon Musk visited any Saudi creditors, but if they include the location of the meeting in their reporting then they wouldn’t be allowed to post it on Twitter until after the meeting.
