IT’S ALL GOOD

The Federal Election Commission (FEC) has ruled that Twitter did not break election laws in October when it blocked users from sharing links to a New York Post story about President Biden‘s son, Hunter Biden, according to The New York Times.

The Times, citing a document it obtained outlining the decision, reported Monday the FEC said Twitter’s actions in blocking the spread of the article were made with valid commercial reason — not a political purpose — making them legal.

It said the company “credibly explained” that stopping the spread of the article, which was based on an email retrieved from the hard drive of a laptop that was said to belong to Hunter Biden, was a commercial decision in line with existing policies that pertain to hacked materials.
