That is GP's point, that no engineer should have admin access to PII when you are operating at Twitter scale. Or at least not without a lot of red tape to make it very easy to catch rule breakers.

It's not that long ago that Twitter was fail-whaling around, a non-serious place for stream-of-consciousness shitposting by anonymous egg accounts. It's still move-fast-and-break-things. Someone else made the comparison to banks, and well, banks deal with real money and have always been dead serious, and they've got decades of head start on handling this stuff properly.
