Twitter censors user for posting "private information" that was the phone number to a district court: A Twitter user shared a screenshot of his censorship notice. He had tweeted: "514th Pedophile given leniency. MA: Christopher Lovett, 39, Great Barrington volunteer firefighter accused of child sex abuse offenses is released on bail. 10K bail. Newburyport District Court 978.462.2652." This accompanied a news article about the case. The number in the tweet was the phone number for the MA district court, not private information. However, according to the screenshot, Twitter locked the user's account until he deleted the tweet, claiming that it violated the "rules against posting private information."
