“We have collected $3,415,323 since October 2019!”
So far the TwitterFiles and whistleblower reports revealed massive security failures inside Twitter. On the other hand, Twitter had hired a dozen ex-FBIers and was constantly engaging with the FBI.
Yet, curiously, the FBI never seemed to be focused on getting Twitter to secure its systems. Instead, the FBI wanted information and was providing millions in compensation.
The FBI reimbursed Twitter to the tune of more than $3 million as it pushed the social media company to ban accounts and target so-called “foreign influence” operations, the latest installment of the “Twitter Files” revealed on Monday.
In an email dated Feb. 10, 2021, an unidentified Twitter employee told then-deputy general counsel Jim Baker and then-general counsel Sean Edgett that “we have collected $3,415,323 since October 2019!”
Baker was another FBI vet.
