hampsterkahn Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 (edited) In more enlightened times ,It was common practice to sit down and write a letter to someone venting your anger about something you felt strongly about or felt aggrieved over. It helped get your thoughts together and the very act could be very therapeutic. It worked best though, if you tore it up when you’d finished writing it. Twitter is so dangerously hair-triggered.It lacks such a safety catch. There were also next level safeties - Looking for a stamp and envelope, leaving it to post in the morning, and the final fail-safe- the period of cool reflection that a stroll to the post box provided, probably saved many a career and relationship.

FookADoodleDoo Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 (edited) 9 minutes ago, offshoremanxman said: Yes. In fact I’ll go further if you think that’s uncouth and simply say I think she’s a liar. For those who were reading the tweets during the time of tweeting will know that the notion of her tweets being down to a hacker is more than improbable. People forget that she was tweeting ordinary tweets in-between/amongst those which were controversial. And the controversial were inline with those what were not as it became more of a debate. So how can you explain that? Edited January 3 by FookADoodleDoo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happier diner Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 23 minutes ago, Annoymouse said: That’s my take on it, if she’s saying she’s been hacked then it’s a case of innocent until proven guilty, we can all make assumptions but it’s not fact. If she says her iCloud account was hacked, it needs to be reported and investigated, simple as that. People may take the piss out of GTS all they want but I reckon even they would be able to trace and identify the ‘hacker’, of course that’s only my assumption….. I'm not sure what it's got to do with GTS. Was it a government account? Did I miss that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily stupid, but perhaps their only experience of ‘hacking’ is forgetting their own passwords and trying to guess them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, but doing that on someone else's account from your own IP address would fall under tremendously stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

747-400 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 18 minutes ago, Happier diner said: You are correct of course. But I does seem an increasingly incredulous story. But yes it is possibly true and perhaps we should all backoff until such time as we know it not true. Will we ever know it is not true though?
