It's OK, she's in the process of teeing up an explanation for that...

It's a bit embarrassing. No Oscars being given out for this.

I think someone has hacked my bullshit detector as well because it seems to have gone off the scale

Say what you like but she was regarded as a public figure at the height of what will probably be the biggest pandemic in our lifetime, if there is the slightest chance any information may have been compromised then it needs reporting. Shes already publicly stated it’s not just her Twitter account that got hacked but her ICloud account. What if it’s fallen into the wrong hands and could give access to emails and other accounts which may hold sensitive information, what’s to say the hacker won’t start emailing her various contacts to gain more sensitive information, if someone has gone to the effort to hack her in the first place what are their intentions? 

I do like her honesty though, a lot of people in her position would try to cover up a hack, it’s slightly worrying that things weren’t as secure as they should’ve been, scientists normally like to think of all eventualities/possibilities and so it must be so embarrassing for her.

So you don’t think a data/security breach is serious enough or worth reporting?

Not an imaginary one, no.

I can only go on the information I’m given, if she posted those things last night she should be held to account, if she’s been hacked then it’s potentially a huge can of worms and it needs reporting.

Absolutely and I wouldn’t be surprised that it has already has been reported but NOT by Glover herself but by those who have seen her tweets. But I think it’s blatantly obvious that there has been no breach. I think the combination of wine and wanting her followers to know that she is still privy to private & confidential data backfired tremendously (more so when her followers started to turn on her) & as a result she has panicked & created a story to get her out of the ****. Those who were reading the thread whilst it was happening cannot be taken for fools.

Not a totally fictitious one. I honestly can’t believe anyone actually believes any of that load of old tosh about being hacked. She has not been hacked.

I’m finding it hard to believe that someone who writes their own specialised computer software wouldn’t know enough to secure their twitter and iCloud accounts. I get notifications on multiple devices if a new login is attempted on iCloud.

By whom?

I find it incredible that someone as tech savvy as Dr G and who has potentially sensitive information in her iCloud account does not already have two factor security.  

If she has been hacked, it is by someone who knows the history and how inflammatory the tweets were rather than some random hacker who wants to introduce her friends to a sure fire money spinning idea/lottery/state benefit. 

it could be IOMG that have hacked her to blacken her name ??    worse than china and russia this place.  😂

She has either lost it or got shit-faced and then realized what she’d done but she most certainly has not been hacked by anyone. And anyway why would anyone hack her iCloud account just to Tweet one totally crass and insensitive statement about the death of the AG rather than install ransom ware or email or tweet out nudey pics? 

Rather uncouth to prejudge the outcome, if this hacking incident has already been reported. In a civilised society we hold “the presumption of innocence” principle – isn’t what we want?

That’s my take on it, if she’s saying she’s been hacked then it’s a case of innocent until proven guilty, we can all make assumptions but it’s not fact.

If she says her iCloud account was hacked, it needs to be reported and investigated, simple as that.  People may take the piss out of GTS all they want but I reckon even they would be able to trace and identify the ‘hacker’, of course that’s only my assumption…..
