After appeal to Musk, X suspends accounts that outed neo-Nazi cartoonist
Quick Glance: Elon Musk's X Responds to Uncovering Alleged Neo-Nazi Cartoonist's Identity
  • Research specialists and media professionals faced restrictions on X when attempting to expose the supposed identity of the neo-Nazi artist Stonetoss.

  • Critics emphasize Musk's active involvement in endorsing extremists on the platform, supporting their narratives, engaging with their profiles, and shielding them from thorough examinations.

  • Following the removal of their content, individuals previously limited for disclosing Graebener's identity have had their access restored. However, the timeline for Caraballo's account reactivation remains uncertain. Furthermore, the suspension of the Anonymous Comrade Collective account persists.
