The “Twitter Files” released by Elon Musk failed to reveal any groundbreaking information about “free speech suppression” taking place on the social media platform as Musk had teased.

Instead, Substack writer Matt Taibbi published a Twitter thread detailing the platform’s decision to limit access to a New York Post article about the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop – some of which violated Twitter’s revenge porn policy.

Taibbi’s thread showed internal communications from Twitter officials indicating they had received requests from Joe Biden’s 2020 presidential campaign to review tweets posted to the platform.

Taibbi shared a screenshot of five deleted tweets, four of which had archives available online that depicted nude photos and videos of the president’s son. The contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop had been leaked after he allegedly left his device at a Delaware repair shop.
