X Blocks Links to Stolen J.D. Vance Dossier
Elizabeth Lopatto, reporting for The Verge:
X is preventing users from posting links to a newsletter
containing a hacked document that’s alleged to be the Trump
campaign’s research into vice presidential candidate JD Vance. The
journalist who wrote the newsletter, Ken Klippenstein, has been
suspended from the platform. Searches for posts containing a
link to the newsletter turn up nothing.
Posting this just in case there remained an iota of a thought in your head that Elon Musk is actually a radical “free speech” absolutist and not just someone who blew $44 billion buying Twitter to warp the entire platform in the direction of his own weird un-American political agenda.
