Hi Guys,

The mastermind behind the Twitter 2020 hack, which saw high-profile accounts, including those of Barack Obama and Elon Musk, compromised, has been sentenced to prison. The hacker, a 22-year-old British man, was sentenced to three years in prison for his role in the hack.

The Twitter hack saw the hackers gain access to the accounts of several high-profile individuals and use them to post tweets promoting a cryptocurrency scam. The hack is estimated to have earned the hackers around $117,000 in Bitcoin.

The 22-year-old hacker was arrested in 2020 and pleaded guilty to multiple charges, including conspiracy to commit wire fraud, computer intrusion, and identity theft. His sentencing comes as a warning to others considering similar actions.

I don’t think this guy should be sentenced to prison. He needs to be employed. He is a genius. Imagine if those skills were used on the white hat hacking side. We are always looking to work with the best of the best but for good and not for scams. Do you want to join us in stopping spy companies from operating? Send me a message, and we can talk.

All the best,
