Apple, Fox News hacked


Hackers took over the FOX News Twitter feed to falsely announce the assassination of President Obama, and Apple’s servers were hacked by Anonymous:

The hackers wrote on the FOX News twitter feed: “BREAKING NEWS: President @BarackObama assassinated, 2 gunshot wounds have proved too much. It’s a sad 4th for #america. #obamadead RIP,” and posted it at 2 a.m. Eastern time.

The hacker group identified themselves as “The Script Kiddies” and claimed a close relation to the hacker band Anonymous: “We wish @joebiden the best of luck as our new President of the United States. In such a time of madness, there’s light at the end of tunnel,” read another post. “Fox News was selected because we figured their security would be just as much of a joke as their reporting,” affirmed a hacker calling himself “Think.”

Meanwhile, Hacker group Anonymous claims that it has hacked one of Apple’s servers. @AnonymousIRC tweeted“Not being so serious, but well (…) #Apple could be target, too. But don’t worry, we are busy elsewhere”. The tweet also included a link that leads to a text file on Pastebin which apparently contains the user names and passwords from an SQL database table on one of Apple’s servers.
