Nothing in the article about collaboration with law enforcement or national security.
Some amount of liability on Twitter’s part in this is palpable, but this is also a criminal act on the part of the attacker who should accordingly be brought to justice, or at least an attempt should be made to do so.
If this is happening with law enforcement agencies then I feel like tech companies usually say so. Twitter’s statement says they are “releasing the details” but there’s no mention of law enforcement or state department involvement.
If the press release is meant to achieve this engagement publicly, then there are no actual “details” in it for example, no link to a list of IP addresses, twitter accounts, and times at which the endpoint was accessed!
Thats a bit flippant of course but perhaps there is actually a way they could have released some of those details: ASNs, days of the attack, some other aggregation?
In any case, some reassurance from Twitter that this is being followed up on by a government agency would be good to see.
