Twitter C/D

Either way, it's kind of impressive tbh.

We are aware of a security incident impacting accounts on Twitter. We are investigating and taking steps to fix it. We will update everyone shortly.

They’re still getting away with it. Kim Kardashian hacked three minutes ago.

Strongly speculated that they’ve hacked a Twitter employee with access to whole account database.

Idk why they don’t just take the site down until they’ve fixed it.

The theory I saw that seemed plausible is someone hijacked a service authorized to tweet on behalf of users, eg people used a 3rd party app to schedule tweets, and that app got hacked.

Twitter itself being compromised is less likely, but not out of the question.

Yeah as others have pointed out, this would be a good time to bring back the whale.

sending more than $100,000 to the wallet

Even if that sum has doubled by now, doesn't seem like it was worth it.

All verified accounts banned from posting.

admiration creeping higher

so uh yeah ignore my theory then

All verified accounts banned from posting.

ok so twitter can just freeze all the verified accounts at once but when someone says my yard looks like shit theyre Suddenl;y powerless...

what a disaster for The Discourse

The Dis-course at last.

The Kim Kardashian tweet was posted via the web app. It’s still up!

FYI what they seem to have done is made their api reject posts to verified accounts as spam, they don’t actually have a “mute everyone” function

And by “seem to” I mean I have heard from people in a position to know

I lolled

Still seems fishy to me that no prominent GOPers got hit with this.

Fascinated to know if anything got done in the White House during that period

honestly i'm surprised they only got this much

have to imagine old people don't have a bunch of bitcoin sitting around

down atm?

Someone I follow observed last night that he couldn't tweet this AP link:

Someone else surmised that Twitter may now be blocking strings of characters that resemble bitcoin wallet addresses.

Would have been easier and more profitable to short $TSLA and then get on Musk's account and power dive it into the ground.

how is parler pronounced

Par-lay, apparently. Kind of ironic seeing as the last thing these bigots want is a parley.

wow, sounds unamerican

This guy thinks he knows what happened and who did it. Good read

except for the police catching you part

Not necessarily, people are shorting Tesla all day every day (and on balance losing shitloads of money on it), it wouldn't be easy to pick you out of the crowds when it started paying out.

lagoon probably means on the hacking side. causing a widely held stock like TSLA to tank would expose you to a lot more legal problems than the Bitcoin scheme, even if they never matched you to the specific short position, which of course they would anyway

I'm not sure why though (on either part)

There's a Titania McGrath kids book now. That has to be the most sinister thing I've encountered for a while.

still putting yrself on a list of suspects

Lol

Honestly they should go 100% subscription and make it a really high level. Then this site can just be 300 media dipshits talking at each other the way it was always meant to be. https://t.co/G7yAS6XSqT

twitter+ comes with hulu, tweet @ yr shows, boom synergy

jack = poor man's peter dinklage

he wears super expensive clothes and still manages to look like ass, the ultimate power move

lol I read the comment before looking at the tweet image and thought it was actually peter dinklage for unknown reasons

it’d be hilarious if there was a twitter movie and he was played by dinklage

Genuine question I think, if construed properly.
