Has anyone else noticed that Twitter has been taking the Orwellian approach to making its users be nice to each other and banning people left and right for saying mean things at politicians and other public figures? And also suspected that these bans might be automatic?

I probably wouldn't mind this so much if they actually enabled the "if you tweet this, your account will get suspended" warnings these endpoints are for, instead of making changes unannounced and getting my friend permanently banned for calling a male footballer a cunt lol
