This is false info, that account was suspended for doxing people, contacting employers of people on Twitter and getting them fired by mass calling the businesses.

Source? Genuine request - “chad loder suspended” doesn’t bring up any stories with info not in that newsweek article for me. Unless you’re meaning a different account?

[edit]

Had another go and the closest i can find is a report from Dec 2021

"However, Los Angeles-based activist and researcher Chad Loder said their account was permanently blocked after reports to Twitter over publicly-recorded images from an anti-vaccine rally and a confrontation outside the home of a former Vice journalist."

So it seems like he may have been suspended in the past for things that might count as doxxing - but his account had been re-instated since then. Either way, I can find no evidence to suggest there was another reason for his most recent suspension.
