Didn't the mighty Script kiddies from "Anonymous" threaten to put on their Burger King masks

And take down the social media websites of the Jihadist murderers?

Looks like someone beat them at their own game.

U.S. military social media accounts apparently hacked by Islamic State sympathizers

Hackers claiming allegiance to the Islamic State took control of the social media accounts of the U.S. military’s Central Command on Monday, posting threatening messages and propaganda videos, along with some military documents.

The command’s Twitter and YouTube accounts were eventually taken offline, but not before a string of tweets and the release of military documents, some of which listed contact information for senior military personnel. A Centcom spokesman confirmed their accounts were “compromised,” and that the military was investigating.

Anonymous my wrinkled old white ass. How embarrassing.

1. A Twitter account is not a website n/t

[arcane1]

2. They did. My first thought was "if you can do this, why weren't you already doing it?"

But I assumed it wouldn't add up to much.

8. I think he's suggesting that the Guy Fawkes masks

resemble the "Burger King."

14. And they make just about as much sense.

4. This is not really all that impressive

My 10 year old cousin can hack a twitter account.

5. That darn internet

I just the other day got, an internet was sent by my staff at 10 o'clock in the morning on Friday and I just got it yesterday. Why?

Because it got tangled up with all these things going on the internet commercially...

They want to deliver vast amounts of information over the internet. And again, the internet is not something you just dump something on. It's not a truck.

It's a series of tubes.

And if you don't understand those tubes can be filled and if they are filled, when you put your message in, it gets in line and its going to be delayed by anyone that puts into that tube enormous amounts of material, enormous amounts of material.

9. It's mostly the M3P's

music files, especially illegal ones, are shaped in a way that isn't conducive to getting through the tubes. So what happens is that you'll get one song stuck in the seams of an Internet CurvePoint. Before you know it, another song comes along and gets stuck in the same place. It doesn't take long at all to completely clog the tubes.

16. It's my understanding this happens to music...

of a Disco nature. Whenever this happens to my friends, I suggest they unplug their computer, take the cover off, and they will see the array of tubes. It is up to them to determine which tube is clogged, then, put it in their mouth and blow til their eyes bulge. Whatever you do though, do NOT blow the red tube.

6. I think you're in the wrong forum.

7. Once you're banned, you're supposed to stay banned, pavulon.

[NuclearDem]

11. Oh, that's embarrassing. I meant pavulon.

[Sopkoviak]

12. Bawaaahaaaahaaaa!!!

Saaawing and a miss.

[NuclearDem]

15. Whatever you say, champ.

13. If ISIS didn't have a penchant to brag about their crimes

Anonymous would be the more likely culprit, since they would cover their tracks by making it look like someone else did the hack and ISIS would be the easy target.

Since ISIS has a very strong emphasize on social media they probably did do this hack but the whole thing is lame. They hijacked their propaganda and replaced it with their propaganda. The motive for the hack is clear so I'm 90% certain ISIS probably which is more than I can say on other hacks that aren't proven.
