Twitter Hacked By Iranians

By Mark Lorenz on December 18th, 2009

Twitter-Hack-1Good news, Twitter haters. Are you tired of your friends updating you with the inconsequential details of their day to day lives? Do you hate people who take pictures of their food at restaurants? Are you generally an angry person when it comes to technological updates? So are the Iranians.

Around 10 p.m. last night, the confidence of the middle class was shattered like a gigantic glass light over the back of a slacking worker. Twitter, beloved, magical Twitter, had fallen to the Iranian Cyber Army. You see their actual army hasn’t attacked anything in the U.S., instead, they’re recruiting people who look like Angelina Jolie from “Hackers” to interrupt the flow of information over the Internet. Isn’t that ridiculous? Of all the sites and satellites in the world to hack, you choose the one that has the least meaning in the real world. Somebody out there was unable to tweet about their cat, or ironic observations about Knight Rider. If you hacked Web MD, people might actually not be able to get diagnosed in time, and die. Maybe. Couldn’t you have hacked Amazon, or a medical supply firm, so people couldn’t get their insulin or textbooks? That might’ve done something. The Iranian Cyber Army left an ominous, poorly worded message, in addition.

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….

It’s like the Berserker song from Clerks. Only on the Internet. And with hackers from Iran.

    maybe they thought to target twitter as twitter represents something a little more important than food-photo updates in Iran. ya know, just maybe. i mean, i know, how inconvenient for all of us in the states -- that fail whale totally ruined my nite

    First, has anyone realized how much media coverage this got the first day and then virtually disappeared from news headlines? TicTacDo - Let's think logically. This is probably not a group to be feared... if they were so serious you'd imagine they'd have better graphics or at least a better translation. I'm not sure we all have to change our twitter passwords just yet -

    This is just the gov trying to manipulate the public's perception of Iran and further instil fear into the American public. The best way to do that is to “target” your kids on twitter - no?
