Additionally, the documents encompass investigation reports related to a breach of the SEC’s official X account, as well as analyses of deepfake imagery present on the X platform and their implications on market dynamics. Leopold emphasized that acquiring these vital documents involved a meticulous process, characterized by persistent follow-ups and negotiations to clarify the requests, with some information still redacted. This collection is poised to offer significant insights into SEC operations for public understanding.
