Threads is following X’s lead, blocking links to purportedly leaked documents about vice presidential candidate JD Vance.
Meta says the links could come from hacked or leaked sources — and it’s blocking them because of the potential connection. The FBI and other intelligence agencies last month warned that Iran-backed hackers had sought to access information from the Trump campaign.
Purportedly hacked documents have been floating around various media outlets ever since, and while the existence of these documents has been reported, almost all outlets have refused to publish the details due to the potentially illicit way they were obtained.
The noteworthy items in that dossier make me wonder what kind of decisions they made while picking Vance. I initially assumed it was because he was a project 2025 groupie, but given that the dossier highlighted his anti-Ukraine stance, maybe project 2025 was just a nussance worth putting up with.
