Twitter fights request for Occupy protester’s data 08 May 2012 Twitter Inc filed a motion in a New York criminal court on Tuesday seeking to quash a subpoena for Tweets and account records associated with Malcolm Harris, a Twitter user who was arrested last fall on the Brooklyn Bridge during an Occupy protest. Prosecutors in Manhattan have sought to build a case around Harris’s Tweets by arguing that they show Harris was “well aware of the police instructions, and acted with the intent of obstructing traffic on the bridge,” according to court filings. Harris lost a bid to squash the subpoena in April, after a judge ruled that Twitter holds a license to its users’ Tweets.
