A privacy breach at Twitter published tweets that weren't supposed to be seen by anyone but the poster’s closest friends to the site at large, the company has admitted after weeks of stonewalling reports

heh... what kind of legal action can be explored if you are a victim of someone who paid for verification and uses that verification status and reputation for something fraudulent or unethical?

Tech (Global News): Want to keep your Twitter account secure without paying? Here’s how to do it https://globalnews.ca/news/9497211/twitter-security-two-factor-authentication/ #globalnews #TechNews #Technology #twittertwofactorauthentication #twofactorauthenticationtwitter #elonmusktwitter #TwitterSecurity #TwitterBlue #ElonMusk #Twitter #Tech

Given the recent API shenanigans, I want to bulk delete Twitter DMs while I still can.

Can anyone recommend a good, reliable tool?

Yes, I can use search engines (DuckDuckGo.com is my tool of choice, thank you), but a lot of the options look dodgy, and I don't want to create new problems.

Thank you for any informed recommendations.

Deleted (or "deactivated" as Twitter calls it) my account on Twitter a month ago or so.

Then received an email from Twatter (yes intentional) about them turning off the two-factor authentication for my account, which is fine since I'm getting the f* outta there.

BUT. Yes, there's a but...

As the deactivation process -according to their instructions online -takes 30 days, that means my account would be left vulnerable for those 30 days.

So decided to leave my account there for security reasons. Not posting anything or being active there no longer. Afterwards heard many ppl did the same thing by leaving their Twitter account there but just as a placeholder to avoid any account misuse.

So I guess there are probably many accounts left, not actively being used but staying on the platform for security reasons. And this ofc fabricates the number of Twitter accounts since WE CANNOT DELETE OUR TWITTER ACCOUNTS SECURELY! 🤯😠
