Twitter's Source Code Leaked Online, Court Case Ensues.
TL;DR Summary
Twitter is seeking a subpoena to identify a GitHub user who allegedly violated copyright law by posting parts of Twitter's proprietary source code to the code-sharing platform. The code includes valuable computer instructions used to run Twitter's social media site, and source code leaks can cause vulnerabilities to a website's security. Twitter is asking the court to authorize a subpoena that would force Microsoft-owned GitHub to hand over more identifying information about the user or users who posted the allegedly infringing content under the account name "FreeSpeechEnthusiast."
