NEW YORK CITY, New York: In a legal filing, Twitter announced that parts of its source code - the fundamental computer code on which the social network runs - have been leaked online.

According to the legal document, filed with the U.S. District Court of the Northern District of California, Twitter had asked GitHub, an internet hosting service for software development, to take down the code where it was posted.
