They don't want to be known as the platform where hackers dump their leaks without repercussions. Not everything has to be about the US presidential election...

There is whether those leaks are factual, or not too.
Where it comes from isn't the same thing as what it is.

If I factually published some random website's password database and posted the link on Twitter, I'd expect them to take it down.
On the other hand, Twitter changed their rules now, so other people will be able to link to the data? I wouldn't be surprised if they have to add another epicycle soon when they don't suppress something the majority agrees they should.
