Assuming that the obvious Code of Conduct [apache.org] is the one Apache is applying, they are way out of line. The very first sentence states that "This code of conduct applies to all spaces managed by the Apache Software Foundation". While it does mention Twitter, this is specifically as "communication channel used by our communities" - meaning any official Apache Twitter feed, or any official feed of an Apache community.
This cannot possibly apply to a private Twitter account.
