    It’d be a lot better if they would close their accounts on the platform entirely. Anyone still on the platform is fine sharing a room with literal Nazis.

      closing the account frees up the handle for trolls/scammers to use. So just not using it is a better way to do it

        If a company pauses activity permanently, and musk opens up the handle as his latest tantrum, could the company sue for damages?

        Or is the best call to just say “pausing temporarily” and have it be permanent in practice
