For what it's worth, I had no idea if it was the absolute worst journalistic judgement I have ever seen, or a way for him to find more CSAM, or some bizarre combo. That is something for the FBI to find out. But I do know the decision to unban him is beyond wild, even for someone trying to bankrupt a social media company. Text almost never makes me physically recoil.

Yeah, even if we give them the benefit of the doubt that it was a bad attempt at journalism, there's no reason to defend them. Also bizarre that Elon would even get involved in it.
