Al Yankovic announced on Twitter that Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe had been permanently banned from Twitter. He indicated that the actor was using his account to mock him. Because the actor isn't on Twitter or other social media, Musk's decision to ban him was not his fault. "Wasn't it apparent he was parodying?" The claim was confirmed by some news outlets, such as the Toronto Star and Katie Couric Media. According to Radcliffe's publicist, the actor is not on Twitter or any other social media platform.

Oh no, they suspended @danielradcliffe's Twitter account! Wasn't it obvious he was doing a PARODY???

According to data from the Internet Archive, the account mentioned by Yankovic, @danielradcliffe, has been dormant or suspended since at least 2011. Radcliffe has stated publicly on numerous occasions that he does not use social media. He told Wired in 2019 that he would probably be the type of man who gets into fights on social media, so he avoided the platforms. "I considered getting a Twitter, and I'm certain that if I did, you'd be waking up to stories like, 'Dan Radcliffe gets into a fight with a strange person on Twitter,'" he explained. The actor explained why he will avoid social media in 2020. Gizmodo approached Twitter for comment on the suspended fake Radcliffe account but did not receive a response.
