Ask HN: How to create a new Twitter account

1 pointsby mawaluover 5 years ago
I created a twitter account for my app a while back to keep people updated after we launch. Today I tried to log in and realized the account is suspended without every interacting with anybody and there is no info on how to fix this. I tried to add a phone number but this fails because suspended accounts can&#x27;t be edited.<p>How am I supposed to create a fresh nowadays?

It&#x27;s been a requirement for a while that you have to have a real (non-VoIP) cell number for doing 2FA. Personally, I hate this idea since getting a VoIP number for 2FA isn&#x27;t vulnerable to SIM Swapping attacks like my number issued by T-Mobile is. The last time I set up a Twitter account I had to do the &quot;unsuspend me&quot; thing half a dozen times before Twitter stopped insisting on auto-suspending because I smelled like a bot for some reason.
