I can see how this might violate some policy against doxxing individuals, but it’s remarkable how consistently Elon Musk just happens to find himself defending neo-Nazis while silencing the left.
Right-wing cancel culture at its finest
I think it’s perfectly reasonable to have a policy against doxxing on online spaces. As long as it is enforced consistently.
I don’t use or follow the details of Twitter nonsense very closely so I have no idea if this is the case.
It’s not the case.
Not very surprising. I have no idea why their user base hasn’t left yet.

Open to that discussion but doxxing can be dangerous for some people more than others. Overall I see more downside than upside on large platforms. If it is allowed, I would expect more innocents/good people to be harmed than neonazis. And as we can see here, there are plenty of other spaces for this type of information to be shared.
Of course, since Elon Musk decides their policies and we don’t, it’s a bit of a moot point.
