Twitter Locks & Shadowbans WikiLeaks & Associated Accounts

The news first broke several hours ago and so far only one out of three accounts appears to have been restored.

The affected accounts are Wikileaks, AssangeDefence, wltaskforce, and assangelegal. Only AssangeLegal appears to be restored so far.

If you search for WikiLeaks, the WikiLeaks and taskforce accounts don't appear. If you search for WikiLeaks, even that doesn't bring up WikiLeaks.

In addition, WikiLeaks editor-in-chief has said that the three accounts are still inaccessible, and Twitter hasn't responded to their questions about why they're locked out.

I go into more details, including screenshots and tweets about what's happening, in my story on Heavy here.

What do you think of this latest development? Seems like services like Steemit are needed more and more these days.
