But it warns users to beware of criminals using the data to send fraudulent messages.
Twitter has denied that emails alleged to be linked to millions of its users' accounts were obtained using a hack.it wrote "there is no evidence" the data came from a flaw in its systems.
"I urge security researchers to conduct a thorough examination of the leaked data and rule out Twitter's conclusion of the data being an enrichment of some sort which did not originate from their own servers."Twitter says it matched data revealed by a security flaw caused by a system update in June 2021.
Ryushi claimed to have a trove of leaked emails and phone numbers associated with over 400 million user accounts, and offered to "sell" them exclusively to Twitter.Following reports of the threatened extortion, the DPC said it would "examine Twitter's compliance with data protection law in relation to that security issue".and made them available for anyone to download for a small fee.
"The data is likely a collection of data already publicly available online through different sources."
