Yeah I seem to remember quite a few “oh so that’s what that wire does” situations that unfolded already.
Do we know if that was real or if the media was just exaggerating things
I remember there was a time after Musk took over that they changed the API so that only logged in users could access it. That broke all of their widgets on third-party websites, which Twitter neglected to update. The widgets phoned home every few seconds, which DDOSed themselves with their own widgets.
