Twitter hacked

For those trying to get on to the Twitter website presently, one need not bother: a group calling itself the Iranian Cyber Army claims to have hacked the site.
Users on the micro-blogging service were presented with a new home page, apparently protesting the United States.
The new home page emerged at 6 a.m. GMT today.
In the poorly translated English, there is an odd reference to an embargo list, and that the hackers were against the Iranian people being stimulated. The hackers gave the address of iranian.cyber.army@gmail.com.
This publication will hold back on Tweeting till the hacking problem is resolved.
It marks an already difficult week on Twitter. Twitter application Twitterfeed had a data migration, leaving many users with a reduced service.
