Hack Attack
By Mark Evans | January 6, 2009
Twitter’s Biz Stone reports that 33 Twitter accounts, including Rick Sanchez’s and Obama Barack’s, had been hacked into by someone who had gained access to support tools used by Twitter employees.
This incident and last weekend’s phishing problems are not the best way to bring in the New Year. If I were one of Twitter’s investors, it might be time for a management meeting to figure out what’s happening.
For a service on the cusp of hitting the mainstream and, as important, attracting a lucrative take-over candidate, these kind of incidents are not the kind of thing that can be tolerated.
