Hey @elonmusk, since you don't seem to have much a media/comms team anymore, can you address the apparently legitimate claim that someone scraped & is now selling data on hundreds of millions of Twitter accounts? Maybe it didn't happen on your watch, but you owe Twitter a reply.

Just enjoyed several glorious days when I didn't even think about Twitter. Wandered back just now to see what's new, and yep about what I expected.
