They manage to hack the account of Jack Dorsey, founder of Twitter

They manage to hack into the Twitter account of Jack Dorsey (@Jack) founder of the social network, apparently through a complementary function.

For a while it was quite common to find social media accounts hacked. Someone tidied up, and popular account passwords have better passwords and usually two-step access. Well, we don't know how, someone has managed to hack into the Twitter accounts. The account of Jack Dorsey, one of the founders of the social network, has been hacked.

Shortly before 22:00 p.m., Spanish time, the account of Twitter @Jack has started to tweet quite rare. Among them were racist, indecipherable tweets and the first of them was "Intel has planted a bomb at Twitter headquarters." An unprecedented mess and more considering that the account of the creator of the social network has been hacked

Jack Dorsey's account on Twitter, his partner network, is hacked.

The bundle is one of the most tochas that is remembered. From bomb threats, a hackers' Discord server post, or a retweet that said, "Nazi Germany did nothing wrong." It should also be noted that the compromised account is that of the creator of the social network.

It is unknown if private messages have been compromised. Dorsey has recently shown special interest in Bitcoin, creating the Square Crypto account. We do not know if his private messages have been compromised, if he had or if they have been leaked.

All the tweets that have been sent have been sent through Cloudhopper, a messaging company bought by Twitter in April 2010. This application allows you to easily connect through SMS operators around the world.

Some experts speculate that Dorsey would have connected to the Cloudhopper application to do a test. It seems that he had forgotten to revoke the privileges of the social network. This would be how they would have managed to access your account on the social network.

Brandon Borrman, Vice President of Communications for Twitter has confirmed the hack within 15 minutes of happening. They are working on deleting the tweets and all the retweets within the social network based on those published by Dorsey.
