In 2010, the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) filed a complaint against Twitter for mishandling users’ private information and the issue of too many employees having access to Twitter’s central controls. On March 11, 2011, the FTC agreed to a settlement with Twitter and, as part of the settlement, Twitter agreed it would be “barred for 20 years from misleading consumers about the extent to which it protects the security, privacy, and confidentiality of nonpublic consumer information, including the measures it takes to prevent unauthorized access to nonpublic information and honor the privacy choices made by consumers.”
However, as the Twitter class action lawsuit alleges, defendants failed to disclose that: (i) Twitter knew about security concerns on their platform; (ii) Twitter actively worked to hide the security concerns from their Board of Directors, the investing public, and regulators; (iii) contrary to representations in U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings, Twitter did not take steps to improve security; and (iv) Twitter’s active refusal to address security issues increased the risk of loss of public goodwill. On August 23, 2022, CNN published an article titled “Ex-Twitter exec blows the whistle, alleging reckless and negligent cybersecurity policies,” reporting that “Twitter has major security problems that pose a threat to its own users’ personal information, to [Twitter] shareholders, to national security, and to democracy, according to an explosive whistleblower disclosure obtained exclusively by CNN and The Washington Post.” The article further revealed that “[t]he whistleblower, who has agreed to be publicly identified, is Peiter ‘Mudge’ Zatko, who was previously [Twitter’s] head of security, reporting directly to the CEO.” Specifically, “Zatko further alleges that Twitter’s leadership has misled its own board and government regulators about its security vulnerabilities, including some that could allegedly open the door to foreign spying or manipulation, hacking and disinformation campaigns.” On this news, Twitter’s stock price fell by approximately 7%, damaging investors who suffered losses in Twitter stock. The Lead Plaintiff Process in the Twitter Class Action Lawsuit
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased and suffered losses in Twitter stock to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the Twitter class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class. A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the class action lawsuit. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery of the class action lawsuit is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.
