Twitter Followers of US Government Accounts Won't Transfer to Biden

Agence France-Presse

   Twitter said Tuesday it would not automatically transfer the millions
   of followers of official Trump administration accounts to the incoming
   Biden administration but instead would give users the option to
   continue or not.

   The move affects followers of government-led accounts such as
   @WhiteHouse and @POTUS, which will be transferred to Joe Biden when he
   takes over the presidency in January.

   Twitter's decision won't affect the personal account @realDonaldTrump,
   which is frequently used by President Donald Trump and has some 88
   million followers.
