Yes, of course. Take the site down if you don't have a read only mode or something. You are losing millions in trust every minute this hack goes on.

- cryptoz 6y agoIndeed, already billions in trust lost so far, guessing by the ~4+% after-hours TWTR drop.
- throwaway43234 6y agoTo be fair, it's still higher than yesterday's low. It's not like TWTR is known to increase over time anyways.

Following that thought, it is entirely possible the whole point of the hack is to discredit Twitter and the bitcoin bit is just smoke.

- azernik 6y agoI doubt this is a productivity issue or an infrastructure issue - shutting off write access is a major business and reputational loss, and I can easily see cultural factors pushing people not to take that step.
- kabacha 6y agoMulti-billion company with thousands of employees of a shitty micro-blogging website can't make their site read-only lol Just shows how massively overvalued these projects are — crash and burn.
