'The social media company formerly known as Twitter has been accused in a revised civil US lawsuit of helping Saudi Arabia commit grave human rights abuses against its users, including by disclosing confidential user data at the request of Saudi authorities at a much higher rate than it has for the US, UK, or Canada.'

@cyrilpedia Jack, the snitch of royal & ordinary totalitarian killer dictatorships, helping them to get a grip on dissenting opposition & have them silenced forever.
I don't believe Elon to be any better, rather even worse concerning user data proliferation.
"The new legal filing comes days after Human Rights Watch condemned a Saudi court for sentencing a man to death based solely on his Twitter and YouTube activity..."

One of the revelations of the #TwitterFiles was confirmation that #Twitter had really terrible internal security practices, management practices, and privacy protections.
So it's not that Jack did this. Jack didn't know what was going on in his own company, which is certainly an issue, but a different one.
It sounds like these employees acted without permission or knowledge of their company, which again is an issue, but we need to be clear about what exactly happened.
Legally, the company may or may not be able to escape liability because of this, after all.
Are things different inside of Twitter/X now? No idea, but we should be asking if they have fixed those problems of the past.
It's ridiculous that employees were able to do this, but that's how poorly Twitter had been run for years and years.
