      XPost: alt.california, ba.politics, talk.politics.misc       XPost: alt.culture.alaska       From: truth@mcnbc.com              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       they’re 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 he’s 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?              http://www.digitaltrends.com/dt-daily/more-bad-news-for-twitter-       as-two-more-executives-exit/                      --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
