Twitter has acknowledged a security blunder, which caused 'Circle' tweets to go public. The platform sent emails to users informing the same. Generally, Circle tweets are intended to remain visible to a subset of trusted followers/friends. However, a bug made them visible to the general public. The issue has been resolved now, and Twitter's technical team claims to know its root cause.
