C11-4 Rogue Twitter Accounts

Following up on this article I've learned that there is now a large number Rogue twitter accounts, many of which are relating to a government organization such as NASA or National Park Services. Having used twitter for a while I knew that there were plenty of fake accounts under names like Bill Clinton but they tend to be used in a jokingly manner and not political action like these new rogue accounts are. According to the article the accounts are giving out information that the agencies normally don't or aren't allowed to say to the public which in my opinion is a very legal thing to do. And as the article says these accounts are a great way to serve against a media blackout. One bad thing is that the accounts could be giving out info appearing to be a professional service but in turn be run by a non educated individual. That in turn could lead to false information being put out. However the positives outweigh the negatives and I believe the people have all the rights to run these accounts.
