Jack Dorsey, co-founder and CEO of Twitter

Yesterday, the owner of the earth Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey's account was hacked.

Hackers went on to post racial epithets, profanities and bomb threats on Friday afternoon.

Twitter banned Cyprian Nyakundi from the platform on flimsy grounds. Nyakundi style of tweeting never changed but Twitter only saw it fit to wage a personal war against him for what is known best to the owners of the universe. Malicious DCMA Suspensions Well Jack Dorsey must change the way his company works especially on the malicious DCMA takedowns.

Users take advantage of the rules to report other users accounts. Curiously, these suspensions only target users whose content are critical of the government.

Anyways, back to the hacked CEO account, here are the screenshots and Twitter Communications acknowledging that the hack happened and that they have secured Jack's account.
