Twitter libs getting mighty nervous about Musk's access to their DMs

Twitter’s blue-check lefties are sweating about their direct messages — now firmly in the possession of the company’s billionaire owner Elon Musk.

Twitter DMs are the private communications users have with one another — and the repository of potentially sensitive correspondence for millions of users.

It’s “no different than trusting Alex Jones with our DMs,” comedian Kathy Griffin told The Post. The funny lady — who has 2 million followers — has tussled with Musk since he took over the platform. She was briefly banned earlier this month on the platform for impersonating Musk, but reinstated on Nov 19.

Twitter’s direct messages have never been encrypted and have always been vulnerable to hacking and bad actors within the company, but experts say the mass layoffs at Twitter have left things particularly vulnerable.

[Translation: Conservatives had to worry about it all along under previous progressive management, but it’s a story now because progressives now worry about it. I doubt Musk is all that interested in their DMs anyway. — Ed]
