Twitter has fixed the issue, which has been ongoing since 2014.
Twitter disclosed a security issue on Thursday that had exposed protected tweets on Android devices – for more than four years.
According to the social media giant, if Twitter users on the Android operating system made specific changes to their account settings – like changing the email address associated with their account – over the last four years, the “Protect Your Tweets” setting became disabled. That means that personal Twitter accounts with tweets intended to be for private audiences were actually open to the public.
