Some online commentators raised the question of whether the library’s 
Twitter archive could threaten the privacy of users. Mr. Raymond said 
that the archive would be available only for scholarly and research 
purposes. Besides, he added, the vast majority of Twitter messages that 
would be archived are publicly published on the Web.
