Can we speculate about this with regard to the timing of DoD's investment into Silicon Valley (and the problems the DoD has had with Twitter), or is that too conspiratorial?

Other partners, such as Facebook and Google, have been very complicit with the DoD. Twitter is willing to delete accounts, but shadowbanning content and dropping content has made them uncomfortable over the years.
