#WomenBoycottTwitter is trending after women vowed to steer clear of the social networking site following the site banning Rose McGowan’s profile after she wrote about the Harvey Weinstein sexual abuse allegations.

Actress Alyssa Milano wrote, “Tomorrow (Friday the 13th) will be the first day in over 10 years that I won’t tweet. Join me. #WomenBoycottTwitter”

Chrissy Teigen also supported the movement.

Questlove asked that Jemele Hill not be forgotten in the ruckus.

Jordan Peele also saluted McGowan.

The support for McGowan comes after she tweeted about Weinsten and people like Ben Affleck, who she said was aware of Weinsten’s sexual abuse against her, in a series of tweet. Twitter has released a statement and said she went against the site’s “terms of service.” “We have been in touch with Ms. McGowan’s team,” it said. “We want to explain that her account was temporarily locked because one of Tweets included a private number, which violates our Terms of Service. The Tweet was removed and her account has been unlocked. We will be clearer about these policies and decisions in the future. Twitter is proud to empower and support the voices on our platform, especially those that speak truth to power. We stand with the brave women and men who use Twitter to share their voices, and will work hard every day to improve our processes to protect those voices”

McGowan had a response for that one.
