I'm probably drawing early conclusions, but it's not a surprise hearing an engineering head or ex-CTO type eliminate security given security is often seen as a roadblock, even in Twitter's case where their leadership and team often worked to make it a business enablement function.

Sound security practices enable good business, e.g giving teams a paved road (https://www.slideshare.net/diannemarsh/the-paved-road-at-netflix https://www.slideshare.net/diannemarsh/the-paved-road-at-net...) that enables rapid and secure releases in place of gates. At least from what few accounts I've heard from engineering in Twitter, it doesn't sound like Mr. Agrawal has much faith in this idea, but that just means he'll be the first to go in the event of the next inevitable breach. Watch it be over something dumb like stolen NFTs.
