Looks like twitter have found a solution to the problem. Just ban all verified accounts.

And they happened to have that little piece of code handy. Interesting.

Which makes me wonder if ol' Jack managed to really PO one of his own staffers who left company to wreak havoc.

Or as mentioned earlier, is this a FF perpetrated by ass-hats to deflect all the woke folks' tweets exposing their shit?

Glad I'm an old broad and don't do all these social media time suck tools.

Thx for post, AstroM. It's always fun to watch 'em wriggle like worms on a hot sidewalk.
And thought struggles against the results, trying to avoid those unpleasant results while keeping on with that way of thinking. That is what I call 'sustained incoherence.' ...David Bohm

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73786357


Looks like maybe they blocked the bitcoin address itself? At least in the body of the tweets. I don't see any new ones if I search for "bc1qxy2kgdygjrsqtzq2n0yrf2493p83kkfjhx0wlh" and sort by time. The only thing that comes up are people who switched their screen names to that.

Looks to me like they are running scripts to remove the valid BTC links but are still powerless to stop the hack

You are really perceptive man...
Yeah I haven’t verified any of the crypto addresses. And some are just a random string that isn’t an address.

I clicked on a PayPal account and that was some girls actual public PayPal address.

I wonder if it’s copy cat like you said. Like people just copied it, put their address in and posted it...

Hmm

Really hard to say unless we start seeing it consolidate around a single destination across multiple accounts. I'd set up a Selenium or Beautiful Soup bot to crawl twitter and look for patterns but I don't have time tonight. Shame too because I already have a Selenium/BeautifulSoup bot for parsing tweets and looking for matches, but I'd have to modify it quite a lot for this task and I just don't have time.

If it is about Money. Negotiations were not going good, and this is Phase 1. Should go back in talks or phase 2.

If this is about Intel. They got it all.. This is about sending a signal.

More than likely might be an exploit found, and exploiting it to make posts on behalf of people.

Hope you all realize there will be a one world crypto currency next year, and major FIAT currencies are going to become worthless due to the depression caused by the 2nd wave of the virus.

The ruling elite overlord illuminati have this all planned out.. World leaders will endorse this new centralized digital currency and how great and secure and fantastical it is.
