You iknow the spammer? Twply? Well, it’s worse than it seems. They now have your user name and password and are looking to sell your data to the highest bidder.
Twitter needs a real third-party authentication system and it needs it now. Thanks to Mark Trapp and other friendfeeders for bringing this to my attention.
Yikes. Good thing I don’t have any super-important information on there.

OAuth twitter authentication could also be implemented by a trusted 3rd party. Someone we could trust with our username/password and would act as a proxy of twitter API. I guess many users would even pay for this service.
Applications would then have to use OAuth and a different API endpoint to access the twitter API, but the rest could stay the same.
