twitter gets hacked a lot so im not surprised. good thing i waznt on twitter when it happened and if i waz i would freak out and think crap i got a virus

Unknown said...

im amazed that ppl in other countries messed with twitter as it waz hacked. goes to show that twitter needs to do a major upgrade to stop the hack rate if not then ppl will stay away from twitter and twitter will die when it waz just made recently

Pearl of wisdom about the Twitter hack from pcworld.com:

"The smartest protection? Don't follow e-mail links, and always look carefully at a URL before handing over any sensitive information. If you think you've been duped, follow this link to reset your password ASAP."

Doesn't just apply to Twitter!!

i mean why did it get hacked because theres so many hackers in this world that even hack into the the united states treasury bank accounts to take money out of it goes to show that twitter needs to do a major upgrade to stop the hack rate

I am glad that twitter got hacked because i dont find any use of it and its just like facebook so people should just stick with that.
