Exclusive: Why The Onion is Banned from Accessing Alex Jones’ Infowars Accounts

As The Onion attempts to acquire Alex Jones’ bankrupt Infowars empire, a new legal obstacle has arisen. X has filed a limited objection in federal Bankruptcy Court regarding the transfer of Infowars’ X accounts to the satirical media giant. The objection is based on X Corporation’s terms of service, which clearly state that the accounts cannot be transferred without X Corp.’s consent.

Here are the key points surrounding this legal complication:

• X Corporation’s objection is rooted in its terms of service, which explicitly prohibit the transfer of accounts without consent.
• The objection emphasizes that according to the terms of service, the accounts are considered X Corp.’s exclusive property.
• Jones’ assets, including the Infowars website, were put up for liquidation auction to settle damages arising from civil trials related to the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.
• The Onion’s parent company intervened to purchase the Infowars site at a lower bid, with permission from the families affected by the tragedy.
• US Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Lopez has postponed the deal and scheduled an evidentiary hearing to ensure a fair process.

As the legal battle continues, it remains to be seen how this situation will unfold. Stay tuned for updates on the outcome of this contentious acquisition.
