If this Twitter hack has profound national security implications, then Twitter itself already has profound national security implications that weren’t being appropriately recognized or addressed.
I think that's true and is definitely part of the larger discussion; when a platform has the power to begin a war; maybe more eyes should be focused on the responsibility of the platform.

Or, we break up and/or shut down the platform.
There’s a small part of my brain that wonders what the vacuum effect of twitter suddenly disappearing would even look like. Partly terrified but infinitely curious to poke that hypothetical techno-philosophical bear.
POTUS tweeting nuclear tweets didn't convince you of that already?
Is a nuclear tweet like a regular tweet that has a half life of 20,000 years?
