This Tweet from a few days ago about a former NFL coach visiting Stanford would seem to violate it;

Maybe not a technical violation since it said "earlier today" -- but a random student tweeting the same right after seeing him on campus would get the account suspended?

A fan saying "OMG, just saw Kanye at the Whole Foods in El Segundo" would be worthy of suspension?

News stories about various public officials secret trips for negotiations would be worthy of suspension?

Doesn't seem very "free speechey" to me.



Or just posting that you ran into your good friend Bob this morning and roughly where would presumptively be in violation, Twitter would have no way of knowing whether Bob consented for that information to be published.
