Twitter Hackers Brighten Gloomy Monday Morning

4chan's /b/ board, the tasty bowels of the interwebs, are claiming credit for this morning's Twitter account hackings of two of the most importance forces in the universe: Britney Spears and Fox News.

Fun!

Sir Owen Thomas has more on the technical aspects of how hilarity unfolded (phishing, test tubes, dry ice, etc.), but if you know of any other notable Twitter accounts that get hacked, do send them Vallwywag's way.

"Bowels of the interwebs"? That's putting it nicely; 4chan's /b/ is an INTERNET HATE MACHINE.

I was wondering for the longest time how big Brit Brit's vagina is.

Brock, I'm sure you'd be just as amused were SFIst to be subjected to the same sort of concentrated attack as Twitter. Right?

You know that Britney post is a hoax... it doesn't say anything about Cheetos.

Yeah, but you have to admit, that Oprah troll was effin hysterical.
