Government seeks twitter identity
Quote | Reply
My twitter feed is dedicated solely to fantasy football sources so I'm not going to add this guy. Serious question seeking an answer that doesn't include left/right partisan name calling (Yes, yes, I know I'm in the LR... just humor me). What is the government's justification for this lawsuit, assuming the twitter poster hasn't posted threats / terrorist recruitment messages from this feed?

Washington Post. Twitter filed a lawsuit Thursday to block an order from the Department of Homeland Security that seeks to reveal the user of an account who has been critical of the Trump administration's immigration policies.

Nevermind.

Washington Post: The legal battle between Twitter and the U.S. government ended Friday as the Department of Homeland Security withdrew its demand that the tech company release information to identify an account holder whose tweets have been critical of President Trump.

I take that to mean that they've figured it out without Twitter's help.

(BTW, my compliments on your user name.)
