So let's be clear about this, we're being told that Musk ordered employees to give an outside reporter access to *everything* internally at #Twitter. Without exceptions. That would mean users' direct messages as well. Think about it.

@lauren I wonder how many people read the Privacy Policy before using DMs? It makes clear that from Twitter's point of view, there isn't really a difference between Tweets and DMs.

At least that is transparent to the user on Mastodon.
