Interesting RE Twitter hack. Here's this morning "news," courtesy of the Daily Mail and NYT:
Sauce: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8535767/Twitter-hack-orchestrated-group-young-pals.html
Pull quote: "Hackers involved in the high-profile hijacking of Twitter accounts earlier this week were a group of young pals with no links to state or organized crime, according to a new report.
The attack, which Twitter and the FBI are investigating, started with a playful message between hackers on the platform Discord, a chat service popular with gamers, according to the New York Slimes."
And also, just for fun:
Trump's "Super-Duper" Hypersonic Missile flies 17-times faster than what we have now.

Interesting they have no sources except the NYT is quoted. Then when they mention “election”, that put up a red derp flag.

IIRC, Discord is a place people can go to make comments on FAKE NEWS articles that would not be allowed past the censorship of big tech. I don’t think it’s just a gamer thing.
Not sure though.
