Yup, then consider using access to other accounts as reinforcement; e.g., in this example, a corresponding Saudi account posting apparently corroborating messages.
Or, in a high-tension war scenario, not only posting tweets from POTUS, and adversary accounts, but also from varios mil commands and news organizations - think creating the entire scenario of Orson Well's War Of The Worlds broadcast...
Might not start a war (we can hope there are enough safeguards in place), but it could cause a lot of damage in a few minutes/hours...
- Udik 6y ago> consider using access to other accounts as reinforcement But then you gain in immediate effect but all those accounts will immediately say that they have been hacked. And since it's many uncoordinated and adversary accounts, people will have less trouble believing in a hack. While if you do it with a single tweet, the suspicion it was in fact authentic will linger.
