Bird charity locked out of Twitter during Big Garden Birdwatch
The British Trust for Ornithology said its Twitter problem occurred after it had been repeatedly tweeting about its woodcock survey throughout January
A bird conservation charity said it had been locked out of its Twitter account for eight days after posting several tweets about woodcock. The Norfolk-based British Trust for Ornithology said it lost access to its account during the Big Garden Birdwatch.Twitter has yet to respond to a BBC request for comment, but Elon Musk tweeted to say the story was "ironic".to inform birdwatchers that its Twitter account had been frozen on 20 January, at a time when BBC Winterwatch was covering the RSPB's annual citizen count of birds.
"We tried to contact Twitter to try to get our account back up and running quickly, but it's all automated and you just get a message back saying 'thank you for sending the information - we will review it'," said Mr Stewart. The charity, which has its office in Thetford, said it was asked by Twitter to verify its account, but "it was all downhill from there really, as the age we put in didn't tally with Twitter's age verification policy", he said., which might have been misinterpreted by Twitter's algorithms," he added.
