"As it scrambles to cope with a noticeable surge in malware attacks targeting its users, Twitter has found a friend in Google. The popular micro-blogging service has quietly started using the Google Safe Browsing API to block links to known malicious Web sites."

Can you still tweet out the URL if Google is wrong? Remember when Google labeled the whole internet as malware?
- Holden Page
Well... Google was wrong for few hours and right for _several_.
- Arnaldo M Pereira
So can you still tweet out the link or not? Because this would have a really negative effect on Twitter if that happens again and you can't override it somehow
- Holden Page
Just did, twitter will NOT let you override it. Let's hope Google doesn't mess up again shall we?
- Holden Page
Holden, in fairness... while unfortunate, that particular incident comprised what percentage of our contributions to making the web safer? ;) I'm all for holding us to a higher standard, but I'd prefer to give Twitter some big props for tackling abuse issues and protecting its users in a scalable way.

“These internet sites in general are a proven haven for malicious actors and content and are particularly high risk due to information exposure, user generated content and targeting by adversaries,” reads a Marine Corps order, issued Monday. “The very nature of SNS [social network sites] creates a larger attack and exploitation window, exposes unnecessary information to adversaries and provides an easy conduit for information leakage that puts OPSEC [operational security], COMSEC [communications security], [and] personnel… at an elevated risk of compromise.”

"As training camps opened last week, players were told that the same standard — read: paranoia — that applied to the flow of information to reporters also applied to Twitter. In Green Bay, players were told they would be fined if they texted or tweeted from team meetings or coaching sessions."

This is boosheet. How can a company tell an employee what they can and can't do away from the office? I know it happens all the time, but that doesn't make it right.

I didn't think MySpace was "stick a fork in them, done" as everyone jumped on the bandwagon to proclaim. Let's see what the new MySpace administration can do, give them a few months before declaring them dead and gone. Rex
