Just swearing at Trump (probably) won't get you in Twitter timeout

Twitter has created "Twitter timeout" — or what I like to call "Twitter jail" — in which the reach of a user's tweets is limited for a 12-hour period if that user is flagged for harassment.*
SEE ALSO: Twitter's backend is breaking under Trump's tweets (http://mashable.com/2017/02/10/whats-happening-trump-replies-twitter-disconnected/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial)
The feature, first reported by BuzzFeed (https://www.buzzfeed.com/alexkantrowitz/twitter-is-**w-temporarily-throttling-reach-of-abusive-accou), began rolling out earlier this month but is just starting to cause quite the commotion in the Twitter-verse, inciting theories that the move is directly tied to tweets against President Donald Trump and the administration.*
It seems Twitter is essentially locking people’s accounts for 12 hour periods if they quote or @ a verified user and swear or insult.
