There's a Twitter war developing between a couple of activists in my industry against some powerful money interests who have the city officials on their side. The city has already gone to our management, at the behest of their corporate donors, telling them to rein in their employees, as well threatening defamation suits, etc. One of the activists has touched base with the ACLU and the media is starting to get interested. The good thing is this Twitter campaign is obviously getting to them. So, how secure are these activists behind their twitter wall of anonymity? I know they don't have the resources if this escalates into some sort of legal fight. I don't want them to lose their jobs over it. And, is their anything one can do to make it even harder for someone to penetrate?
