lol! it is very good to see things like this happening. Very funny when someone hacks a government official because guess what! IT PROVES MORE AND MORE WE NEED ENCRYPTION ON EVERYTHING!

isnt that amazing though? lol twitter getting owned, they need to make hashes for stuff and allow us to mine tweetcoins. would be fun!

It is not that difficult to hack a twitter account. But I am surprised that it went unnoticed for quite some time. The tweet was removed after a considerable delay. What happened?

I think it was not hacked, but an attempt by the gov to damage the reputation. After all, they can login to any twitter account

What government?
USA?
If so, this really was smart move.
I think Russians will be afraid now to use social networks for some time :)

After the break-in, Medvedev's Twitter account protection has been strengthened. The password was changed from "123" to "qwerty"

Hahahaha, very good one...

I don't know why all these politicians are using such weak passwords, I mean, they get hacked all the time..
