PSA FOR ARTISTS.
PLS RT & @TwitterSupport

A number of artists are currently being attacked by false DMCA claims in an attempt to dox them. Several have had their accounts suspended, including Yueko in the last few minutes. DO NOT give out your personal info in the counter claim
Adding more info:

It seems the claims will be filed under a fake name and email. They're hoping you'll file a counter claim using your real information to dox you. If you don't file a counter claim however, your account will get suspended. Fix this @TwitterSupport
I was legitimately typing up this tweet moments before Yuekos account was suspended. This is incredibly concerning and can seriously impact artists who make their living through twitter. Please tag @TwitterSupport
Yueko has received an email essentially asking her to pay to get her account back, whether or not the email was sent by the same attackers is unknown, but worth mentioning nonetheless
twitter really thinks forwarding all your information to the person who files a DMCA is a good idea. what an absolute joke
UPDATE: I’ve gotten a million DMs but it’s time for me to sleep. Feel free to DM me if you’re being hit with false claims and I’ll try to help you through it when I wake up. Good night!
