A mother sued Twitter for the identities of people who impersonated her daughter on the social media site, tweeting in her name "my passion is being fat," "free hand and blowjobs call me," and posting her phone number and picture online.

The mother sued Twitter on behalf of her minor daughter, in Cook County Court.

She seeks a court order compelling Twitter to release the identities of people who set up two Twitter accounts.
