What is the official encoding for Twitter's streaming API? My best guess is UTF-8 based on what I've seen, but I would like to avoid making assumptions. The only part of the Twitter site I've seen where they even hint at what they use as their official encoding is here: Twitter does not want to penalize a user for the fact we use UTF-8 or for the fact that the API client in question used the longer representation https://dev.twitter.com/docs/counting-characters Does anyone have a more "official" answer? I'm writing a state-machine tokenizer for the streaming API which makes certain assumptions. The last thing I want is to encounter something like UTF-16. Thanks! :D
