@aral I think @alexanderhanff wrote something about @twitter monitoring & tracking private messages last year

@SigniusNetworks@aral@twitter yeah they are definitely monitoring DM's I had a Twitter bot visit a custom link I sent over DM to test it. -
@SigniusNetworks@aral@twitter it is very easy to test - set up a page on a web server & post a link to it in a DM then look at logs -
@alexanderhanff@SigniusNetworks@aral@twitter Which is how it gets its preview information... -
@joshtaylor@SigniusNetworks@aral@twitter that doesn't change the fact they are monitoring DMs -
@alexanderhanff@PatOndabak@joshtaylor@SigniusNetworks@aral@twitter a bot visiting for previews is one thing, ads is unacceptable -
@luckhardtjason@PatOndabak@joshtaylor@SigniusNetworks@aral@twitter neither is acceptable - monitoring DMs is not ok for any reason -
@alexanderhanff@PatOndabak@joshtaylor@SigniusNetworks@aral@twitter an option to disable previews in DMs should be present
