Jim Walden, a former assistant U.S. attorney running for NYC mayor, is suing Elon Musk's X Corp for deceptive trade practices and is seeking to restore his suspended account.
In the statement, Walden claims that X Corp has engaged in shadowbanning and deceptive practices, which prevent his campaign from effectively communicating with voters ahead of the mayoral election.
Walden expressed frustration that for two weeks, after his account was suspended, there has been no response to his appeals from X's support staff, highlighting an ongoing lack of transparency.
The lawsuit underscores a broader trend since Elon Musk's acquisition of X, with account suspensions tripling and many users alleging similar abusive behaviors impacting their social media reach.
