It sounds as if your Twitter account has been suspended. That is not
the same as having your application shut down. A shut-down app means
you cannot access the API at all, i.e., all your API calls are denied
with connection refused.
Can you still access the API from your app and publish tweets
No it appears that our API is shut down completely, everything we do
now is returned (401) Unauthorized. We do not do anything automated
other than send out tweets that our users schedule. I presume if the
users scheduled a tweet with DM it would go out that way but we do not
automatically do
