Password guessing attack exposed in Twitter pwn

Rob

Hacking?

Script kiddies != hackers. He's got a brute force password tool and didn't hide behind at least a proxy? C'mon now - if Twitter has any idea, they would have already reported it in to authorities with the connection details used for that admin account (Unless they have no logging at all...I guess that's possible seeing as they have nothing in place to stop someone from attempting this to begin with).

Hell, if this GMZ is in the US, they could tag this as "terrorist" going after Obama's feed.
