Quoting: george s. 832821Iranians have the capabilities to hack some systems in the Internet. You can thanks the Chinese hackers, courtesy of China gov't. They don't need CIA for it. Morans like you need get a real education on what the government of Iran is doing to its own people BADLY.

Quoting: Anomalous 843644Iranians can do some damage with all this information... maybe twitter was the prime site to hack for their information overload? Only claimed to be 'Iranians' could be any Western or Israeli Government involved, what could Iran gain from this? I really wanted to throw you to the wolves in Iran and see all for yourself, fucking moran. |

User ID: 304 United States 12/18/2009 09:44 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This is a smoke screen set up in light of the Iranian election protests. The US government saw what a threat Twitter could be to them, just as it was to the Iranian government. I imagine by the response of everyone, the Feds waited long enough to take Twitter down so as few Americans would take the mental leap into truth and see their hidden agenda. We are being prepped for something radical and fundamentally different than the America I know and love. But if at the Church they would give us some ale, And a pleasant fire our souls to regale, We'd sing and we'd pray all the live-long day, And never once wish from the Church to stray. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 832000 United States 12/18/2009 12:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | DNS hijacking does not mean that Twitter itself was compromised in any way. Though some feared that a worse attack was afoot and advocating that you change your passwords that resemble that of your Twitter account, it now appears that those concerns were overstated. Quoting: RememberThisThat raises even more questions Like? DNS servers have always been pretty weak, and the most common attack on websites is hijacking the DNS, because it's so easy to do. The worse is someone completely hijacking your domain with a little social engineering (or taking it before you re-register). This is nothing new, the worst that happened is a few people got phised for user names and passwords. |

User ID: 735641 United Kingdom 12/18/2009 12:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.techcrunch.com] Quoting: Crazy DiamondWe’ve received multiple tips right around 10 pm that Twitter was hacked and defaced with the message below. The site is currently offline. We’re looking into this and waiting on a response from Twitter. The message reads: Iranian Cyber Army THIS SITE HAS BEEN HACKED BY IRANIAN CYBER ARMY [email protected] U.S.A. Think They Controlling And Managing Internet By Their Access, But THey Don’t, We Control And Manage Internet By Our Power, So Do Not Try To Stimulation Iranian Peoples To…. NOW WHICH COUNTRY IN EMBARGO LIST? IRAN? USA? WE PUSH THEM IN EMBARGO LIST ;) Take Care. Update: – We have just found out that the same defacement is appearing at at least one other site, mawjcamp.org. We are not able to see what was at this domain before, but it is now displaying the same defacement that Twitter was only a few minutes ago. Twitter does not have the best record with security issues. We have previously covered a number of incidents, and as recently as two months ago their web servers were misconfigured to reveal detailed internal network information. We also previously wrote about their admin interface having a password of ‘password’ on one account, and the well-known Twitter doc incident. We do not know a lot about the group claiming responsibility for the attack as we haven’t heard their name before and they do not show up in any defacement mirrors or security sites. Similar Iranian groups were active during the election campaign in that country. We have emailed the group (they were kind enough to leave an address on the defacement) for a comment (also added them on Gchat – worth a shot). See screenshots at link. Twitter is still down. Thanks for reposting my post, OP. The mods here don't like me so won't pin it. Thanks to you, it got the pin it deserves. |
