Signing out broken?
When I press 'Sign out', then follow the 'Sign in with Twitter' link on the resulting page it just logs me back in with no user intervention. I tried logging out of Twitter to be sure that it wasn't because I had already blessed your site for OAuth and it did the same thing.
This is with Firefox 3.0.1 on GNU/Linux Ubuntu 8.04.

Meanwhile, signing in and out works well again. Just a tad late in reporting here.

Inappropriate?Many thanks for reporting this.
Yeup, we messed up. Apologies to anyone affected. We're working on a rapid fix, hopefully to be deployed tomorrow.
This the current sign-out procedure potentially allows people to edit your Amplus channel. It does not allow people to access your Twitter account.
Until the fix, we recommend not using Amplus on shared computers. If you find that someone has edited your channel please contact us for a manual fix.
I’m anxious

Inappropriate?Pleased you are working on this. In the meantime, if your advice is not to use it on shared computers it would be helpful to say that on the page itself, where the log in button is, rather than just over here. -

Inappropriate?Would you consider disclosing the full details of the security bug, so that we can all both learn from the error and also keep an eye out for any possible re-emergence?
I hope that in future when you have security advice for users you will have a better way of passing it on to the actual people it affects, not just the people reading the bug-tracking site. -
Inappropriate?This issue was relatively small, and remedied before it caused any damage. Thank you once again for reporting it. We will now focus our attention and feedback on matters that help grow the service.
I’m thankful
