Blogger Banned from X After Posting Hacked JD Vance Dossier

Ken Klippenstein shared the Iranian-leaked dossier on Sen. JD Vance, leading to a permanent ban from Elon Musk's platform.

Ken Klippenstein, an independent journalist, posted a 271-page dossier on JD Vance to his X account, which led to his permanent ban.
The dossier, allegedly hacked by Iranian operatives, included sensitive information such as Vance's home address and partial Social Security number.
Major media outlets declined to publish the dossier, citing concerns about foreign interference and the ethical implications of using hacked materials.
Klippenstein defended his decision to publish the dossier on his Substack, arguing that the public has the right to access and analyze the information.
Elon Musk's decision to ban Klippenstein has sparked debate over free speech and content moderation on social media platforms.
