#Twitter Sucks At Malware Protection (98hrs later)

Just over 4 hours ago I published a post congratulating Google and Stopbadware on their efficiency in responding to malware, and eventually the speed with which they reinstate a “bad” domain after malware has been removed.

In contrast, whist everyone seems to enthuse about how real-time Twitter is, their system handling malware is such a delayed knee-jerk reaction that it should just be removed as a total failure.

You see an hour ago I received the following email

twitter-malware

It is good that Twitter is doing something to protect their users, but this is like putting on a condom the morning after.

Update: It has now been 98 hours since Twitter blocked my site
