Supreme Court Rejects X's Appeal, Upholds Ban on Disclosing Federal Surveillance of Users

The Supreme Court declined to take an appeal from X, formerly Twitter, challenging a ban on disclosing federal surveillance of users. The social media platform argued the ban was unconstitutional and that surveillance requests should only be granted in exceptional cases. The appeal aimed to overturn a ruling that restrictions on free speech around national security surveillance don't require judicial review. Last year, a search warrant was issued for Donald Trump's Twitter account as part of special counsel Jack Smith's investigation.
