Elon Musk announced that after a bug fix, Twitter Spaces is now back online for the public to use. However, Musk did not clarify which bugs were fixed or what changed on the famous platform.

Twitter saw multiple controversial events earlier, as its famous audio-only feature, Spaces, got previously shut down after journalists confronted the CEO for his behavior and for revealing the flight data on his jet. After this incident, the short word social media gave multiple journalists involved in this incident a 7-day suspension on the platform.

The Twitter CEO and owner announced to the public that the company's Spaces is back, and this was initially shut down on the platform after the recent fiasco of journalists with the tech CEO.

Musk was asked to bring back Spaces, and he replied that it is undergoing a bug fix and will be back shortly for the public to use for their needs.

It is unknown which bugs were addressed by the Twitter team, especially as it was accessible earlier, back when Musk joined the conversation of journalists on the platform feature.

Elon Musk Suspends Journalists

Alongside this Spaces incident was a list of journalists seeing a temporary suspension on their accounts, with Donie O'Sullivan from CNN, Drew Harwell from The Washington Post, Ryan Mac from the New York Times, and Aaron Rupar from the Independent. Allegedly, these members of the press committed doxxing on the platform when they revealed the flight details of Musk's private jet in a Spaces conversation, which the tech CEO initially joined. After he left the room, Chief Twit disabled the feature for the public to access.

The multi-tech CEO also claimed that this type [sic doxxing] of behavior will not be tolerated on Twitter.

Twitter Doxxing Policies

Chief Twit made it clear that there should be no forms of doxxing on the platform, and what started this entire controversy is with Jack Sweeney's ElonJet account which revealed the live location of the CEO's jet. At first, both Sweeney and the @ElonJet accounts saw a suspension on the platform, and this is the tech billionaire's move against the threatened safety of his family.

And while the ElonJet account already regained its access back on Twitter, Sweeney remains suspended an unknown number of times, but most likely a temporary one.

This incident saw Twitter updating its anti-doxxing policies on the platform, which still allows location posting for public events or mass activities, but not for revealing the live location of an individual. The new safety policy aims to protect the likes of its CEO and other personalities whose privacy may as well be revealed online.

The recent suspension of journalists was argued to be a move that violated Twitter's anti-doxxing guidelines on the platform, one which Musk has made clear to avoid on the platform or get a temporary ban. It started with Twitter Spaces, with the feature seeing a shutdown, which made its way back online, but not with the suspended journalists.
