While the alleged screenshots of internal emails have come to light now, back then, Twitter argued that it censored the story as it violated its ‘hacked materials’ policy. As per Taibbi’s thread on Twitter Files, “Although several sources recalled hearing about a “general” warning from federal law enforcement that summer about possible foreign hacks, there’s no evidence - that I've seen - of any government involvement in the laptop story. In fact, that might have been the problem... The decision was made at the highest levels of the company, but without the knowledge of CEO Jack Dorsey, with former head of legal, policy and trust Vijaya Gadde playing a key role.”
