Twitter has agreed to pay $150 Million in fines after the U.S. government sued the social media company yesterday, alleging that it misled consumers about how it protects their personal data.

"This practice affected more than 140 million Twitter users while boosting Twitter's primary source of revenue," FTC Chair Lina Khan said in a statement.
