After Musk acquired Twitter in late 2022, concerns about potential privacy breaches arose regarding his decision to allow journalists access to internal company documents, known as the “Twitter Files” incident. That raised alarms about a deal with the FTC in 2022 that would require tighter security measures.
According to the FTC, Musk initially instructed employees to grant “full access to everything on Twitter” to certain people involved in the Twitter Files project. However, “long-time Twitter security personnel have stepped in and implemented security measures” to reduce the risk of user data exposure. This prevented limited access and resulting breaches.
