I think that's a https://cock.li/ e-mail address, even if it isn't listed on their site.

Honestly, why do people create usernames like that? Sure, there are different levels of humor in the world. Famously, Linus (from Torvalds) and the comments he made caused, historically pain in LKML but as we all (in the world) as becoming closer due to centralisation of services - should we all slowly align a bit to openness (i.e) from both sides. Do not offend and do not get offended.

Seems pretty obvious why the account has been suspended- user created a wilfully offensive user name and email domain
