Twitter took stuff down at the government's request even though they couldn't find a violation of their own ToS, let alone determine that things were illegal.

Can you cite an example of that? I've read all of the threads so far and none of them demonstrate an account being taken down at the government's request.

The document dump contains evidence of government agents telling Twitter to "look into" things and Twitter responding that they "handled" it.

Government thugs don't need to give explicit orders to have their wishes followed, especially if the thugs in question make it sound like they share your ideological goals.

Nice little company you got there. Shame if something were to happen to it.

I mean, Twitter was so accomodating of warrantless government requests that they built a friggin portal for government agents to submit them. Does that not set off any alarm bells?

This is incorrect. The "handled" response you're referring to was regarding a list of links to leaked nudes of Hunter Biden reported by the Biden campaign:

As I've said, Taibbi has been very clear that he has no evidence of government involvement in any response to the Hunter Biden story.

Not that I saw... where did you see that?
