The Wall Street Journal reports the whistleblower allegations against Twitter's lax cybersecurity practices have begun drawing scrutiny from members of U.S. Congress. U.S. Senate Committee on the Judiciary Chair Dick Durbin, D-Ill., said the claims "may show dangerous data privacy and security risks" and the committee may "take further steps as needed to get to the bottom of these alarming allegations." Sens. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., and Ed Markey, D-Mass., each sent letters to federal regulators regarding potential investigations into the claims.
