The Twitter Files

The Twitter Files refers to a series of internal Twitter documents released starting in December 2022. These documents were curated and published by independent journalists, primarily Matt Taibbi and Michael Shellenberger, under the supervision of then-Twitter CEO Elon Musk. The releases aim to expose the company's content moderation policies and decisions, particularly concerning political speech and the handling of controversial accounts and topics prior to Musk's acquisition.

The Twitter Files have been met with a highly polarized reception.

The veracity and implications of the released information remain subjects of intense debate.
