Twitter said Monday that it expects to take a $150 million-$250 million loss related to an FTC complaint on its data securities practices.
The social media giant, which was hit by a major hack last month, said in an SEC filing that it received a draft complaint from the Federal Trade Commission on July 28 alleging violations of its 2011 consent order with the commission. The allegations related to Twitter’s use of phone number and email address data provided for targeted advertising between 2013-19.
