UPDATE:
His account his live again. Tweets seem on initial inspection to line up, BlockMe's statement about followers/tweets being deleted requires better inspection. Haven't looked deep into it, it is Christmas after all.
New tweets/retweets about the Bill of Rights in the UK, antiquities being stolen, and wikileaks statements like "Despite some oddities from the US Navy and Twitter today and increased physical surveillance @JulianAssange's physical situation at the embassy remains unaltered--confined without charge in violation of two UN rulings requiring the UK to set him free."
Original Post:
Saw this on gab, the only "Assange" on there seems to be a fake. Didn't see anything from the wikileaks account, and with the lawyer's raid that happened, speculation is that his account is tied into his dead man's switch. And more then a few people are sharing their own screens, https://archive.fo/TCBaw
What I get for checking shit online late on Christmas Eve.

The conspiracy is that his dead man would post something automatically, whether it is like a hash wikileaks has done, https://twitter.com/wikileaks/status/787777344740163584, https://archive.fo/9tPCU, or that someone else is monitoring his account for a specific phrase/key that would prompt them to action. That seems a bit reliant on twitter, I would expect something much more innocuous like speaking to people in person, or better in control of the hardware, not needing a twitter exec to okay it, seeing as wikileaks has the resources to pull it off.
Just, without any word from the wikileaks account on the matter, it being christmas, something seems up.

On gab. It's where I found out about this. (also I just saw the cbts subverse thread that was up before my post).
However, like it or not, gab is not as influential, and widespread as twitter. And Assange's account is high profile, not your generic, off the cuff conservative talking about a guitar player named Lynch getting frozen for "hate speech". (That's a bit facetious, Razorfist is not a generic conservative, just a youtuber that started a #notneutrality hashtag).
Kind of why I am curious as to if this is a run of the mill censorship, or something else.
EDIT: Seems like his account came back five hours ago, sent some tweets, including tweets/retweets about the Bill of Rights in the UK, antiquities being stolen, and wikileaks statements like "Despite some oddities from the US Navy and Twitter today and increased physical surveillance @JulianAssange's physical situation at the embassy remains unaltered--confined without charge in violation of two UN rulings requiring the UK to set him free."

Twitter didn't become popular until the powers that be tossed a bunch of money @ celebrities to start shilling. "Be at X store in so many minutes and ill buy you stuff!"

The despicable gizmodo shills are posting crap as usual.
