EU citizens, remember that you have the right to be forgotten. If you’re closing your Twitter account, you can write to them and tell them to delete your data and your account permanently and they must comply. You don’t have to leave your data with Musk if you don’t want to.

@aral

I can't because they're asking for my ID. Is this even legal? Any third party tool to scrap all of your personal data?

@gnu_f4jbs @aral it’s a good idea to download the archive. Gives you a way to proof later data mischiefs, should they occur
