Two users of Donald Trump's new social-media app Truth Social have reported being censored for wildly different reasons.
Truth Social was released on iOS on Sunday, although its launch was beset with technical issues that made it difficult for some users to create accounts. Many of those who did manage to create an account were placed on a waiting list.
Matt Ortega, a web developer, tried to create an account called "@DevinNunesCow" but tweeted that his account was banned by Truth Social due to "social community guidelines violations."

Ortega shared the email with Insider, which confirmed its authenticity.

It was about THEIR freedom to forment violence and hate without being held accountable.

Nunes sued a fictional cow because it made fun of him. This is to be expected.
