After hours for who?

After hours for who?
- ryanisnan 6y agoYeah, that's just wrong. It was mid-day PDT, right around Twitter's core hours, and many of the targets are also west coasters.
- e79 6y agoYep you’re right. My bad. Hmmm... I still think my point makes sense. The “smash and grab” style attack fits given how noisy it was. People were wondering why they didn’t do something far more insidious like covertly gather everybody’s DMs and such. That’s not really feasible when you know your attack is going to get noticed fairly quickly.
- ryanisnan 6y agoTrue. Also there would have probably been some time pressure to act given twitter employees would have likely noticed logins from strange devices/locations, and raised some flags.
