Update on the Twitter Archive at the Library of Congress
The Library of Congress issued a white paper last week which details plans to no longer collect every single tweet published, as it aims to take a more selective approach to its Twitter archive.
“In April 2010, the Library of Congress and Twitter signed an agreement providing the Library the public tweet text from the company’s inception through the date of the agreement, an archive of tweets from 2006 through April 2010. * Additionally, Twitter agreed to provide tweets on an ongoing basis under the same terms.”
“The Library saw an opportunity to document the emergence of online social media for future generations. Its first objectives were to acquire and preserve the 2006-10 archive; to establish a secure, sustainable process for receiving and preserving a daily, ongoing stream of tweets through the present day; and to create a structure for organizing the entire archive by date.”

After Equifax breach, anger but no action in Congress
US representative Jan Schakowsky of Illinois, a Democrat who introduced legislation after the Equifax incident, expressed his frustration at the lack of action from Congress.
“The massive Equifax data breach, which compromised the identities of more than 145 million Americans, prompted a telling response from Congress: It did nothing.”
“Some industry leaders and lawmakers thought September’s revelation of the massive intrusion — which took place months after the credit reporting agency failed to act on a warning from the Homeland Security Department — might be the long-envisioned incident that prompted Congress to finally fix the country’s confusing and ineffectual data security laws.”
