Tonight's account hijacker/spambot: We think we know how he did it.
Posted on 08/27/2021 10:19:51 PM PDT by Jim Robinson
We think we know how he did it, but we're not going to explain it yet. Don't want to give others ideas.
Meanwhile, we've temporarily disabled the login program while John makes some changes tonight to try to block bots. Hopefully, he'll have the programming complete tonight.
Sorry about the mess, but looks like the mods have most of it deleted.

If they can be traced file against them and let us play too so it can be a class action.

It livened up a boring night without the use of alcohol. ;-) Have to admit I was wondering what some people were drinking and why weren't they were sharing.
Very rude.

Somebody, somehow, hacked several accounts and posted obscene threads that said “fox News” but actually went to porn sites. There were a bunch of threads posted very quickly.

Am I relieved to read this Jim!
I was on with my VPN program and telling them it was causing me grief on the computer I use that program.
I finally was able to read this post. Phew....
Hackers are Democrats and Liberals!!!!

If it is like other comment sections they are simple to find. Anything with “Trump’s Surrender” “Greatest airlift in history” or “ agrieved Biden” is a a bot. Word for word the bots and trolls are in full force to protect his degenerate child sniffing pedo president.

They were mislabelled, then. They should have been labelled “CNN” and “MSNBC.”
