Twitter Files

By: Brayden Yee


After taking control of Twitter, Elon Musk stated that he would document the censorship of conservative leaning news sources on the site. The Twitter Files go into the moderation decisions relating to events such as the January 6th insurrection, and Hunter Biden’s laptop.


The revealed Twitter Files include information relating to Trump and Hunter Biden, as well as the secret blacklists relating to shadowbans around the site. There have also been files released relating to the communications between Twitter and the FBI, centering around the debate to suppress misinformation about the 2020 election results.


There have currently been 10 parts to the Twitter files as of the 26th of December, centering around the relationship between Twitter, and conservative media, with Musk claiming that he wants to make Twitter a place where freedom of speech is absolute.
