A former security chief at Twitter told Congress on Tuesday that the social platform is plagued by weak cyber defences, privacy threats and the inability to control millions of fake accounts. Peter Mudge Zatko, a respected cybersecurity expert, appeared before the Senate Judiciary Committee to lay out his allegations. Twitter's misleading the public, lawmakers and regulators, Zatko said as he began his sworn testimony. The platform is over a decade behind the industry's best standard, he said.

Senators who will hear Zatko's testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee are alarmed by his Twitter allegations at a time of heightened concern over the safety of powerful tech platforms. It's Zatko's second Capitol Hill appearance, and in some ways a 21st-century echo of his first. In 1998, he testified before a Senate panel along with fellow members of a hacker collective who warned about the security dangers of the then-emerging internet age. Zatko, a respected cybersecurity expert, was Twitter's head of security until he was fired early this year.
