- jmandawg, on 01/06/2009, -0/+40looks like they brought the A-Team in on this one, "we've narrowed it down to... an INDIVIDUAL"
huh, go figure... - LtGenPanda, on 01/06/2009, -0/+39Twitter's blog reports that exactly 33 accounts were hacked by an individual.
Does anyone know the full list of 33, were they all celebrities ? - thelovedr, on 01/05/2009, -4/+38It totally sounds like something someone high on crack would write... this is just twitter covering for the CNN anchor.
- BigCalvin247, on 01/06/2009, -0/+33Does this mean that Bill O'Reily isn't gay?...
- potchovsky, on 01/05/2009, -0/+25haha! This makes me wish i could do some harmless hacking.
- ballsanya, on 01/06/2009, -0/+24That's what she said.
- serif69, on 01/06/2009, -0/+23And he would have gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for you meddling kids!
- frieddonuts, on 01/06/2009, -0/+22I have seen that several times already today and I just can't stop laughing.
- inactive, on 01/06/2009, -0/+20I, for one, would like to shake this lone individuals' hand.
- jcsoc, on 01/06/2009, -0/+20Twitter is finally becoming a worthwhile site!
- inactive, on 01/06/2009, -1/+18So let me get this straight: One of the most popular and widely used websites, Twitter was able to be compromised by a sole hacker who hacked into tools that Twitter staff are able to use to reset passwords and email addresses, and it wasn't secured against hackers? Ultimate security fail.
When you've got a site that has a tonne of celebrity and media corporation accounts the last thing you want to do is compromise security, word will get out quickly about it. - inactive, on 01/06/2009, -4/+20I like how Obama was trying to scam people into trying to win a $500 gas card.
- DragonForce4, on 01/06/2009, -0/+16nope
- adith, on 01/06/2009, -1/+16The Department of Homeland Security still has not ruled out terrorism.
- Carbonate, on 01/06/2009, -1/+15You know the guy who did this was laughing hysterically as he was changing it!
- dzneill, on 01/06/2009, -1/+14This has gotten way bigger than it should have.
- dzneill, on 01/06/2009, -1/+14Yes... yes she did.
- GarrettGrimsley, on 01/06/2009, -2/+13I believe that the name of the alleged hacker was none other than that of Robert Paulson
- dawnraid101, on 01/06/2009, -1/+11Twitter sucks
- getoffmybridge, on 05/05/2009, -0/+9You're too old, fat man. ***** are too big. Get the ***** off my porch.
- michelspc, on 01/06/2009, -0/+9B-b-b-bird, bird, bird, bird is the word.
- darkfate, on 01/06/2009, -1/+10While the accounts were hacked, it doesn't make any of the tweets untrue. :D
- 4g3nt_Smith, on 01/06/2009, -3/+11A birdie told me: http://digitalgangster.com/4um/showpost.php?p=1363 ...
- diggopotamus, on 01/06/2009, -1/+8at least this guy had a sense of humor...
lulz @ bill o'reilly - 7m7uf, on 01/06/2009, -0/+6I love how he spent the time to customize them. I would shake his hand if i could stop LOLing over "Brit Brit" - it's all about the details...
I wonder if he does requests. - grammarpuss, on 01/06/2009, -0/+6Is there any chance this is a shameless attempt to lend credence to a "legitimate message about making turkey lettuce wraps?"
- lololol1, on 01/06/2009, -4/+10I'm surprised there hasn't been a "His name was Robert Paulson" yet.
- afx1, on 01/06/2009, -0/+5Robert Paulson
- dawnraid101, on 01/06/2009, -0/+5So you've heard the word?
- Kriztov, on 01/06/2009, -2/+5haha! This makes me wish i could be high on crack right now.
- inactive, on 01/06/2009, -0/+3So basically, Twitter has ***** security.
- maehem, on 01/06/2009, -3/+6Now that's what I call a "Dirty Sanchez" !
- BigCalvin247, on 01/06/2009, -0/+3ok, good to know...
- zgerrz, on 01/06/2009, -0/+2Still some pretty funny incidents, lol
@zgerrz - inactive, on 01/06/2009, -0/+2Bill O'reilly did it. he had his panties in a brunch.
- MeatMountain, on 01/06/2009, -5/+7That individual: gay Bill Oreilly.
- donald347, on 01/06/2009, -0/+2Ooh sure, just blame anon.
- chanop, on 01/06/2009, -0/+2Oh My! How will your subscribers know that you're on you way to get a latte at Starbucks?!?!?!
- yukonblack, on 01/06/2009, -1/+3and why does Twitter have its support apps internet facing? was this the work of an ex-employee or is their security infrastructure just that bad?
- Bartboy919, on 01/07/2009, -0/+2RONALD PAUL!?
- ElGubrush, on 01/06/2009, -0/+2But, how can we know he wasn't actually high on crack regardless of his twitter account getting hacked?
- ryangravener, on 01/06/2009, -0/+2Bad publicity is still good publicity.
- Sal4, on 01/06/2009, -0/+1Anyone have a list of all these faked celebrity posts?
- Qumahlin, on 01/07/2009, -0/+1At what point did they say it wasn't secured against hackers? There is no 100% guarantee to stopping a "hacker" because to do so would mean your psychic and know of every possible undisclosed or unknown vulnerability.
My house is secured against burglary. Is someone likely to get in, no, but it could still happen. - Natnie, on 01/07/2009, -0/+1Maybe the hacker changed your email address?
- FurtThePirate, on 01/06/2009, -2/+3anon?
- Mujokan, on 01/06/2009, -0/+1He's a falafelophile. http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/1013043mackri ...
- exspasticcomics, on 01/06/2009, -0/+1His name was Robert Paulson.
- exspasticcomics, on 01/06/2009, -0/+1celebrity hack done by an 'individual'-- as opposed to a 'hack' of god.
