Twitter has suspended a total of nine accounts it believes are linked to an anonymous account used by prominent former Sunday Independent columnist Eoghan Harris. A Twitter spokeswoman confirmed the move on Friday, saying that “platform manipulation is strictly prohibited under the Twitter Rules”. “We also suspended eight accounts linked to the account referenced for violating our policy on platform manipulation and spam. One of the suspended accounts, belongs to a woman aged in her 40s who was a student of his, Harris said. He said he has asked Twitter to go into the Pym account’s private messages to confirm none of them were offensive.
