1/ Just want to put today’s Twitter horror in plain language for people.
Senior people at Twitter have resigned in the last 48 hours, including the CISO. We now now why. They said in private Slack channels that Elon musk is so desperate to recoup his money, he’s taking crazy risks with every Twitter user’s privacy and safety.
2/ Right now, Twitter is extremely hackable. That puts every user here at extreme risk for DM leaks, identity theft and surveillance.
Elon doesn’t care. He wants his money. So they resigned. And top lawyers told Twitter employees to get whistleblower protections.
@briannawu Can you elaborate more on your "hackable" comment? Is this due to the ability to impersonate official Twitter accounts or because you think the rapid changes may be introducing bugs/exploits?
@evilattorney @briannawu The latter is definitely a concern, but I think the bigger issue leading to hackability is just the mass exodus of institutional knowledge.
