Sounds like they're reporting on a different universe than the one where the "Twitter Files" reports are coming from.

perhaps its a typo. s/avoid/enable/

I suppose they're not mutually exclusive, if the department that reviewed the legal requests from the Twitter Files was told to vet the requests involving prominent politicians and the like extra carefully.

Are you making a claim that the "Twitter Files" show excessive penalizing of conversatives?
