Default Twitter warns of 'record highs' in account data requests

Twitter has published its 20th transparency report, and the details still aren't reassuring to those concerned about abuses of personal info. The social network saw "record highs" in the number of account data requests during the July-December 2021 reporting period, with 47,572 legal demands on 198,931 accounts. The media in particular faced much more pressure. Government demands for data from verified news outlets and journalists surged 103 percent compared to the last report, with 349 accounts under scrutiny.
