I wouldn't be terribly surprised, based on the timeline of exploits I've seen, if the wider abuse of this is due to the incredibly stupid exploit demonstration at the launch of @RainbowTwtr.
My related tweets from earlier tonight... ah, about the RainbowTwtr angle, not exploited tweets! :-)

- jrockway 16y agoWhy is it stupid to tell people how insecure their favorite messaging platform is? So when they get hacked, they will have to wonder why? Sounds like a great plan...
- jdub 16y agoIf by "tell" you do not mean a cynical public reveal for the sake of product promotion and by "people" you mean the organisation running the platform (Twitter), I'd agree with you. :-)
