Whistleblower disclosures allege Twitter cybersecurity issues

Former Twitter Head of Security Peiter Zatko filed whistleblower complaints to U.S. Congress alleging Twitter operates under lax and insufficient cybersecurity practices, CNN reports. The disclosures by Zatko claim the platform has issues with broad user data access without oversight and its data deletion practices are inconsistent. A Twitter spokesperson responded to the allegations, saying privacy and security matters "have long been company-wide priorities."
