Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey got a taste of his company’s suspension-happy policy on Tuesday when his account was temporarily suspended.
Social media platform user @BakedAlaska posted a screen grab of Dorsey’s account showing it suspended.
“Error — The account you are trying to view has been suspended,” the message read.
“HAHAHA @Jack Dorsey got suspended from his own platform,” he tweeted.
Dorsey confirmed the suspension in a tweet of his own:
just setting up my twttr…again (account suspension was an internal mistake)

“Just setting up my twttr…again,” Dorsey posted Tuesday night, adding in parentheses, “account suspension was an internal mistake.”
No word on whether the suspension of all those accounts held by conservative activists were also an “internal mistake,” or intentionally done by a company many accuse of being politically motivated in its accountability efforts.
