An updated legal complaint alleges that the microblogging platform hasn't kept users data safe.
The lawsuit was originally filed by Areej al-Sadhan, the sister of a former Saudi aid worker, Abdulrahman al-Sadhan, who was forcibly “disappeared” by the Saudi government and later sentenced to 20 years in prison based solely on tweets he made that were critical of the government.
“Twitter gave my brother’s identifying information to the government of Saudi Arabia, which blatantly violates its terms and conditions,” al-Sadhan alleges in the lawsuit. “As a result, Saudi Arabia kidnapped, tortured, imprisoned, and—through a sham trial— sentenced my brother to 20 years in prison, simply for criticizing Saudi repression on his Twitter account. The Saudi government has since denied him contact with his family or access to his attorney. I am not sure if he is alive.
