Updated | Hacking supporters are claiming censorship after Twitter suspended the account of the hacker behind the leaks of Democratic National Committee (DNC) emails as well as a Friday release of stolen documents from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC).
"Guccifer 2.0," the supposed hacker who some intelligence analysts believe is a Russian front, was removed from Twitter Saturday after releasing a cache of documents on his website (the documents were taken down by Wordpress later Saturday, "upon receipt of a valid complaint regarding the publication of private information") that contain passwords to certain databases and the private contact information of current and former Congressional Democrats in a hack that was "even easier than in the case of the DNC breach," according to his website. Wikileaks, the online repository for leaks that purports to champion transparency in government, immediately decried the suspension as censorship in a message that's been retweeted nearly 4,000 times.
