The message cited rules against \u201cdistribution of hacked material\u201d and went on to say:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>We don\u2019t permit the use of our services to directly distribute content obtained through hacking that contains private information, may put people in physical harm or danger, or contains trade secrets.<\/p>\n<p>Note that if you attempt to evade a permanent suspension by creating new accounts, we will suspend your new accounts. If you wish to appeal this suspension, please contact our support team.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2>BlueLeaks asks: Why us and not WikiLeaks?<\/h2>\n<p>DDoSecrets describes itself as a \u201ctransparency collective, aimed at enabling the free transmission of data in the public interest.\u201d On Friday, it published BlueLeaks, a 269-gigabyte trove of documents that KrebsOnSecurity reported was <a href=\"https:\/\/krebsonsecurity.com\/2020\/06\/blueleaks-exposes-files-from-hundreds-of-police-departments\/\">obtained through the hack of a Web development company<\/a> that hosted documents on behalf of police departments. Some of the documents exposed police candidly discussing responses to demonstrations protesting what a Minnesota district attorney has charged was the murder of George Floyd, a Black man who died while handcuffed as a Minneapolis Police Department officer pressed a knee on his neck for nearly nine minutes. As of Tuesday, Derek Chauvin, who has since been fired, had not entered a plea.<\/p>\n<p>A Twitter spokesperson confirmed that the company had permanently suspended the DDoSecrets account for violating the social media site\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/help.twitter.com\/en\/rules-and-policies\/hacked-materials\">rules barring hacked materials<\/a>. The spokesperson said the material (1) contained unredacted information that could put people at risk of real-world harm and (2) ran afoul of a policy that forbids the distribution of material that is obtained through technical breaches and hacks, as publishers of DDoSecrets claimed had been done.<\/p>\n<p>DDoSecrets co-founder Emma Best criticized the suspension and noted that the Twitter account for WikiLeaks remains active despite its publishing of vast troves of private information resulting from the 2016 <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/information-technology\/2016\/06\/hackers-invade-dems-servers-steal-entire-trump-opposition-file\/\">hack of the Democratic National Committee<\/a> and members of the Hillary Clinton campaign. WikiLeaks has also tweeted links to its Vault 7 series, which <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/information-technology\/2020\/06\/theft-of-top-secret-cia-hacking-tools-was-result-of-woefully-lax-security\/\">published details about closely guarded CIA hacking programs<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Other accounts associated with the Anonymous hacking movement have also escaped suspensions. Twitter was also slow to suspend Guccifer 2.0 and the Dark Overlord, the monikers of two purported hackers, both of whom also published extensive amounts of personal information obtained through hacking and tweeted the links.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c@DDoSecrets has worked with dozens of major news outlets across the world and published terabytes of data uncovering money laundering schemes, corruption, and more,\u201d Best <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NatSecGeek\/status\/1275556178467184641\">tweeted<\/a>. \u201cNow we&#8217;re being censored for publishing the #BlueLeaks files about law enforcement.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DDoSecrets?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@DDoSecrets<\/a> has worked with dozens of major news outlets across the world and published terabytes of data uncovering money laundering schemes, corruption, and more.<\/p>\n<p>Now we&#8217;re being censored for publishing the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/BlueLeaks?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#BlueLeaks<\/a> files about law enforcement <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/MBKQ7JRW6A\">https:\/\/t.co\/MBKQ7JRW6A<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Emma Best <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/11\/svg\/1f3f3-fe0f-200d-1f308.svg\" alt=\"\ud83c\udff3\ufe0f\u200d\ud83c\udf08\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/11\/svg\/1f3f4.svg\" alt=\"\ud83c\udff4\"> (Mx.

Best said that DDoSecrets critics have been falsely reporting to security firms that the site is malicious in an attempt to make the site unavailable to users of antivirus products.<\/p>\n<p>The Twitter spokesperson didn\u2019t answer questions about the basis for the claims. The spokesperson also didn\u2019t say what distinguished materials published by DDoSecrets from those published by WikiLeaks. McAfee representatives weren\u2019t immediately available for comment.<\/p>\n<p>Best <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/information-technology\/2020\/06\/theft-of-top-secret-cia-hacking-tools-was-result-of-woefully-lax-security\/\">told Wired<\/a> that prior to publishing BlueLeaks, DDoSecrets spent a week scrubbing about 50 gigabytes of material disclosing sensitive details about crime victims, children, unrelated private businesses, health care companies, and retired veterans\u2019 associations. The co-founder conceded, however, that the team \u201cprobably missed things.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Critics have increasingly complained that Twitter\u2019s rules for removing tweets and accounts it deems abusive or harmful are inconsistent. The social media site\u2019s permanent suspension of DDoSecrets and its unsubstantiated warnings the site may engage in malicious behavior is only going to further those charges.<\/p>\n<p> READ MORE
