Twitter suspended the account ‘F1‘ 3 weeks back and after I lodged a complaint I got a auto-generated response 2 weeks later. I filed my request again today like this:
I own the Twitter account @f1 for more than 2 years and have 4000+ followers. I have been using it for broadcasting Formula1 related news and manually broadcasting updates during the Formula1 race. I have been following every follower in the account and we engage in a meaningful conversation. These conversation include sports related details, comments, clarification, humor etc.
I am not violating any Trademark as F1 does not hold any trademark. Please refer to link here for court case ruling that- “Formula One Losses Trademark Fight“. I am not breaking any issues related to copyright, because mainly I collect information from sources such as Formula1 website, BBC F1 site and other popular F1 blogs and tweet the links for the followers. I also tweet updates during the race, but those fall under Fair Use.
I am also not trying to impersonate any person or team at F1, Formula1, FIA, or FOM. I give link to my blog instead of of Formula1.com in bio. Please look into the issue and check back the replies at @f1, where F1 fans have been requesting to un-suspend the account.
Regards
Kumar Veetrag
Twitter has suspended some other sports related account and TechCrunch has reported it here. Fan followers can follow me at FakeF1 till I get my account back.
Any suggestion how to approach Twitter and get this issue resolved as early as possible are welcome.
