Big Tech promises to never again suppress embarrassing leaked content about a political figure came with a catch.

If it’s a Republican , then of course the content will be suppressed, and GOP officials who demanded that big tech never ever again suppress such content will look the other way.

One week after the Senate Intelligence Committee held a hearing about the threat of foreign intelligence efforts to interfere with US elections, the Trump campaign's internal vetting dossier on JD Vance has been released.

Twitter and Meta said “let ’s pump the brakes and see” given how much attention has been paid to all that, including literally one week before this.

Of course, the hypocrisy will stand, because the GOP has spent years pointing to the Hunter Biden laptop story as their shining proof of big tech bias”.
