IWantMyTwitterData
We've created this site to help Twitter users located in Europe request their personal data from the company.
What is this?
Twitter's lurch to the regressive left has become stark over the past year. A platform that once billed itself as the "Free speech wing of the free speech party" now regularly caves in to demands from left-wing activists and celebrities to censor other users.
This censorship is carried out with virtually no transparency. Users are not informed whether they are being monitored, shadowbanned, or otherwise censored by Twitter. When they are openly punished by the company, all they receive is an automated email with no right of appeal. However, if you live in Europe, there's a way to learn more.
Twitter users in European Union countries can request user information from Twitter under the EU Data Protection Act. This information should include any information related to suspensions, temporary or otherwise, and the decisionmaking process behind them.
This site will help you generate a letter which you can send to Twitter's data controller in the European Union.
