Twitter, the Whistle Blows for Thee
In recent days we've heard whistleblower testimony from Peiter Zatko (aka Mudge) alleging some pretty serious security problems at Twitter. This comes at a fairly opportune time given Elon Musk's interest in buying the company and subsequent cold feet due to Twitter's "bot problem."For the uninitiated, Mudge is a long-time hacker (an "OG" you could say) that has a reputation of being someone that can "speak truth to power." While we're skeptical of the timing too, the material content of Mudge's report should raise some serious eyebrows. Join us as we dig into the ins and outs of the report and talk a bit more about Mudge and why this report should be taken seriously.- https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/22186683/twitter-whistleblower-disclosure.pdf- https://www.npr.org/2022/09/13/1122671582/twitter-whistleblower-mudge-senate-hearing
