Twitter is now seeking the identity of the user behind that account as well as the names and other information of all users who posted, downloaded or uploaded the data.
The account responsible for the posting, named FreeSpeechEnthusiast, signed up on GitHub at the start of the year and appears to have only uploaded the Twitter cache. GitHub complied with Twitter’s request to remove the data under a copyright infringement claim and posted Twitter’s request online. The code, which forms the basis for the web service’s various functions and internal tools, was posted on GitHub, the widely used code repository that’s now owned by Microsoft. Parts of Twitter’s proprietary source code were published online until last week, the company said in a California court filing on Friday.
