- jagged-chisel 4y agoProbably to correlate Twitter user names with telco customers.
- HWR_14 4y agoOh, wow. I didn't even think the request included Twitter handles.
- shiftpgdn 4y agoThey (the telcos) only have stats on their customers. Twitter has it for anyone running twitter. Further, twitters location data is likely more accurate than the telco due to positioning from stuff like wifi names, local gps, etc.
