Giving your ID to Twitter is indeed on a whole different level. I would never do it, and a lot of people here seem to agree with me.

However, in my previous example I’m pointing out that there are a surprising number of people who don’t see it that way. Just because you and I would never do it, doesn’t mean much. There are always people who just don’t care about privacy or security.

Maybe they don’t know much, or understand what they’re doing, or maybe the social pressure is so great that they feel like they have to get an account. Either way, I would argue that the number of those people is disappointingly high.
