New Twitter guidance means that for future Events we are unable to share Tweet URLs. Instead we use custom URIs to express Tweet IDs and author usernames. They still contain all the necessary information to identify the Twitter Content and retrieve the data from the Twitter APIs. Full documentation on the [Twitter Agent](/sources/twitter/) page.

According to the agreement we have with Twitter, we are allowed to process the text of tweets to extract events but we are not allowed to store or redistribute it. The text of the tweet is therefore passed to the Percolator and marked as 'sensitive'. This means that the SHA1 hash of the text appears in the Evidence Record as an `input-content-hash`, but not the text itself.
