Twitter Shares Fall On Fears Of Possible Hacking Activities

Image
Popular social media networking site, Twitter, on Monday suffered a loss in shares after a security firm affirmed that the platform was hacked to enable the hackers steal users’ information. Prior to this episode, the platform had experienced an unusual traffic, causing an emergency investigation suggesting that the occurrence may be resulting from “state-sponsored” hackers. Twitter claims that while investigating a security bug that leaked data and users’ country codes, it also uncovered a malicious traffic to a customer-support forum. Accordingly, the traffic notably came from an IP address in China and Saudi Arabia. China, the prime suspect in this denies any ties with the internet hackers and promises to cooperate in cracking down such malicious behaviour.

While the company has announced that it would provide measures to ensure that such incidence never happens again, it’s a known fact that the case with robots almost never ends with an absolute plan, as this will not be the first time that robots have “misbehaved”.  Even though it always ends with a blame on the human behaviour, the total dependence on robots bothers on “human competence”.  That human error will always exist could be a clear pointer that the idea of an absolute reliance on robots is fluid.
