theverge | Twitter says it has permanently suspended markets blog Zero Hedge’s Twitter account, @zerohedge, for violating the company’s platform manipulation policy. On
Wednesday, Zero Hedge posted a blog that doxxed a Chinese scientist and
strongly suggested without evidence that the scientist created the
strain of coronavirus that’s currently spreading around the world.
That blog lists a name, photo, email, and phone number
that are reportedly tied to the scientist, and suggested that readers
“pay [him] a visit” if they wanted to know “what really caused the
coronavirus pandemic.” BuzzFeed News reported on Zero Hedge’s blog that doxxed the scientist earlier this evening, ahead of the Twitter suspension.
The Verge is not publishing a link to Zero Hedge’s blog post or information about the scientist to avoid spreading misinformation.
