[tor-talk] Twitter account lockouts for Tor users

I've noticed that Twitter accounts accessed via Tor have a tendency to lock
due to suspicious activity. This requires a password reset via email or SMS
and may sometimes entail an hour-long delay before Twitter restores access.

I use an alpha[1] Twitter client along with Orbot, both as provided by the
Google Play Store.

Have other Twitter & Tor users seen this same account lock-out?
