Earlier this year, journalist Ashley Feinberg outed then-FBI Director James Comey‘s secret Twitter account, using nothing more than the „harmless“ metadata people like James Comey have said no one needs to worry about. The secret account was sniffed out through something the Intelligence Community likes to call „contact chaining.“ The path ran through Comey‘s children‘s Instagram accounts and one conspicuous follower of Comey‘s previously-secret account: Lawfare writer, surveillance apologist, and personal friend of Comey‘s, Benjamin Wittes.
