> - There's no doubt that Twitter and Facebook has been uncritically spreading false rumors about Trump only to turn right around and supress the H.Biden leaks, even after it was clear at least some of the juicy mails was cryptographically verified. If Twitter had been posting a warning everytime someone pretended the "fine folks on both sides" hoax then they would have been in a better position now. Same if they had come up with the rule against hacked materials when Trumps tax papers supposedly leaked.
Do you have a link that refers to this cryptographic verification? Last time I saw this talked about on HN, the summary was that there really wasn't even an ounce of evidence, and that the people who supposedly had it were not sharing it for no good reason, so I'd be interested if there has actually been a proper verification of this.

What do you mean, and what's the source for this? Again I'm not that informed about this topic, so I'm genuinely curious about a source. That's also the problems when half his tweets make the headlines: that skews the information towards what he says rather than what he does, and given the votes of this election I tend to think that (at least the perception of) the latter is better than the former.

I don't know what GP is talking about here, but what I remember is at least one person mentioned in the emails confirmed to the FBI that they're real.
