Twitter now lets anyone request a verified account
He can always create a new account. Twitter is not capable of banning all IPs. If the user is seriously going to become controversial on Twitter, he certainly can.

But the new account will have no followers, it will take time/effort to get them all back, so suspending an account is still worthwhile.
