Earlier this month, the very active, very watched Twitter account of the President was abruptly deactivated for 11 minutes. The man responsible for those 11 minutes moved back home to Germany, and he agreed to speak to TechCrunch about what happened that day.
Someone reported the account on Duysak’s last day; as a final, throwaway gesture, he put the wheels in motion to deactivate it. Then he closed his computer and left the building. Duysak describes the event as a “mistake.” Specifically, he told us, he never thought the account would actually get deactivated.
