Didn't Twitter cite the California law against doxxing (verbatim), and then only publications which violated that have been suspended?

Based on that, it would seem removing the doxxed info and not publishing it in the future would be an easy way to get their accounts reinstated. Or they can just keep yelling into the wind on Mastodon.

It's so hard to have sympathy when the irony of the situation is so fucking thick.

Yes but the articles in question didn’t violate the quoted law. Sharing public information (the location of Phony Stark’s jet) is not doxxing.
Well, that is his home so why wouldn't that be doxxing? He sold his houses.
It’s not doxxing because aircraft locations are a matter of public record. A newspaper or other publication publishing information that’s already public is not a net new disclosure.
