Others have already pointed out that removing any "login with Twitter" access is probably a good idea right about now.

But there's a deeper lesson here: "what if the unaccountable tech company you're trusting to authenticate you goes rogue" is not a hypothetical.

It's probably a good idea to avoid using this sort of "login with _____" feature elsewhere as well.

@joepie91 is there an easy way to find places where I use Twitter to authenticate? I hope I never fell for it, or cleaned those when I got a bit more informed.

@wheeze_NL I *think* you can find them under 'authorized apps' in your account security settings or something along those lines
