The alarms went up and different security teams started to take notice. Where was the data coming from? Well, an investigation pinpointed the loose spigot \u2013 Twitter. In December of that year Twitter recognized that it was partly their fault. That over 6 million user data had been compromised. But why just partly? Because, it was due to a fault in a third-party API.
