As I read some sobering and thoughtful posts about the anniversary of yesterday, I couldn’t help but wonder if the chaos was deliberately extended to drive the out of the news. The dynamics haven’t fundamentally changed since the beginning of this debacle, but the drama peaked yesterday and resolved first thing in the morning Jan 7th. That sure worked out for… all the same people involved in this standoff. Hmm.

"Breaking - Twitter database leaks for free with 235,000,000 records.

As I anticipated yesterday, the database was circulating heavily and is now leaked.

The database contains 235,000,000 unique records of Twitter users and their email addresses and will unfortunately lead to a lot of hacking, targeted phishing, and doxxing.

This is one of the most significant leaks I've seen."
