Online hacking concern OurMine has scored another coup by
hacking the Twitter account run by Netflix. Fortunately for
Netflix, OurMine is a white hat hacker group and they take
pride in penetrating online defenses it was a password this
time around and then gently needling their victims rather than
using the hacked accounts for evil. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg
and Google CEO Sundar Pichai are among its victims.
OurMine tweeted out their logo and a contact email address along
with a short message about testing your security on the
Netflix account before Netflix likely stepped in and changed up
the password. OurMine added that no one is safe from hackers
before all their tweets were deleted, and sadly, it seems like
theyre pretty much right about that.
The exodus continues at Twitter with the impending departure of
two more upper-level execs, Chief Technology Officer Adam
Messinger and VP of Product Josh McFarland. Messinger has been
in the Twitter nest for four years and said hes going to take
some time off, while MacFarland is leaving to join venture
capital outfit Greylock Partners as an investor, according to
Forbes.
Twitter founder and CEO Jack Dorsey recently announced that
Keith Coleman, formerly of Yes Inc. and Google, is going to head
up the products division. However, Twitter has seen two rounds
of layoffs in two years and a steadily sliding stock price,
despite it being an icon of social media. Can somebody please
turn this company onto a path for growth? Apple? Microsoft?
Facebook? Google? Bueller? Anyone?
