Banning

The Twitter files is a report issued by several private journalist who were given permission by Musk to investigate at first why Trump was banned. The results was more far reaching than the Trump incident. These journalist discovered that various government agencies, most notable the FBI, would send information to the different social media sites warning them of certain mis or dis information and they should handle this info according to their company policy. They did not say that this info should be banned but subsequent checks revealed that often times it was banned. This apparently been going on for years but only came to the attention of the public with the release of the Twitter files. Many individuals were aware of this because they found themselves being banned. It normally came to their attention when they discovered that their post were not being sent to their subscribers in a process called shadow banning.
