X Temporarily Suspends Journalist After Publishing Hacked J.D. Vance Dossier
Sep 26, 2024, 07:25 PM
Independent journalist Ken Klippenstein has been temporarily suspended from X (formerly Twitter) after publishing a dossier on Senator J.D. Vance on his Substack. The dossier, reportedly obtained through an Iranian hack of the Trump campaign, contains Vance's personal information, including physical addresses, phone numbers, emails, and the majority of his Social Security number. Klippenstein's suspension has sparked a debate about free speech and censorship on the platform, especially given X's policy against posting unredacted private information. The incident has drawn comparisons to previous controversies involving the platform's handling of hacked materials, such as the Hunter Biden laptop story.
