Hackers target Obama’s Twitter account links
It appears a prominent element of President Barack Obama’s Twitter presence was briefly compromised on Monday.
A link sent out from the president’s Twitter account @BarackObama was meant to send people to a story on the The Washington Post’s website, but instead it sent many of those who clicked to a video on YouTube about terrorism and Syria.
The Syrian Electronic Army (SEA) claimed responsibility for the breach in a Twitter post.
