Local Twitter had some drama today. The twitter account of @BollywoodGandu, whose identity has always been clandestine, was hacked by someone calling him/herself Anonymous Abagnale (whose own Twitter account is @AnonAbagnale), an obvious mashup of the hacking organization, Anonymous and cheque forger Frank Abagnale Jr. (watch Catch Me If You Can). The user announced the hack in a tweet from the @BollywoodGandu account itself saying that the account had been hacked. The user followed it up with a blog post on why s/he hacked the account. The hacker said s/he had no plans to use the account, just to shut it down. Even if s/he contradicted himself a little later (read on).
