The fucked thing is that with parliamentary privilege we can’t hold it against them, and can be sued for defamation by claiming that they did say this

Who specifically authorized the reactivation of the account?

Musk replied to one user questioning Lucre's suspension with an answer to why the platform took action. According to Musk, Lucre was suspended for "posting child exploitation pictures associated with the criminal conviction of an Australian man in the Philippines." Musk followed up by saying that they'd remove the post but would reinstate Lucre's account. Lucre was back on Twitter the very same day.

So. . . Probably who you'd expect.
