Twitter suspends UberTwitter and Twidroyd for ‘violating’ its policies

Without elaborating, Twitter has just posted a help document titled “I’m Having Problems Logging In to UberTwitter or twidroyd” that gives little hope for an immediate fix: turns out the company has outright suspended both apps — among the most popular Twitter apps for the BlackBerry / iPhone and Android platforms, respectively — for “violating [its] policies.” They go on to say that they suspend “hundreds” of apps on a daily basis for policy violations, but decided to call out these two in particular because of the high number of users potentially affected. Considering the popularity factor, we imagine this’ll be solved one way or another before too long — but in the meantime, you might want to fall back to the official apps for all three platforms.
