Hmmm. Interesting to find this morning my personal Twitter account (@freitasm) suspended "and is being investigated due to strange activity."

What could be "strange activity" is anyone's guess, since this is a personal account and a lot of people in my list are folks I actually met before.

If you are on Twitter it would be good if you send a message "@twitter why is @freitasm suspended? He's a real life person".

Thanks...

Hmmm. It seems my account is back now. Thanks for your support and RT. Except you Magu. You didn't post anything. Unless you sent them a DM.

Would you believe me if I told you I Ctrl+C the message above that I was supposed to send to @twitter and ended up forgetting all about it?

Still fresh from my clipboard: @twitter why is @freitasm suspended? He's a real life person

I FAIL. (yes, incorrect grammar included)

Now if we could only figure out how to ban this shady character from these forums... hmmm.
