Twitter will notify users of disclosure applications

Interesting to see Twitter saying at e-G8 that they will notify users if they are the subject of a court application against Twitter to disclose their identities.  As pointed out in a previous post, that is possible under the English Norwich Pharmacal procedure, and was suggested by Aldous L.J. in Totalise v Motley Fool, but rarely if ever happens.  Maybe now it will catch on.
