Twitter Bug Leaks Phone number country codes

How many "bugs" like this is Twitter allowed to get away with? I mean, come on, this is like the billionth one...am I right?

Twitter  accidentally exposed the ability to pull an account’s phone number country code and whether the account had been locked by Twitter. The concern here is that malicious actors could have used the security flaw to figure out in which countries accounts were based, which could have ramifications for whistleblowers or political dissidents.
