Twitter-hacked-screen-grab First drones, now Twitter. It appears that Twitter was hacked into Friday morning by a so-called Iranian Cyber Army. The microblogging site was down for about an hour. I was asleep, so I didn't know anything about. But between the Twitter hack and the news about Predator Drones being tracked, I sort of feel like the United States is getting cyber bitch-slapped. PCWorld and TechCrunch have some of the best write-ups I've seen so far.

Here's what the message said:

Iranian Cyber Army

iRANiAN.CYBER.ARMY@GMAIL.COM

U.S.A. Think They Controlling And Managing Internet By Their Access, But THey Don’t, We Control And Manage Internet By Our Power, So Do Not Try To Stimulation Iranian Peoples To….

NOW WHICH COUNTRY IN EMBARGO LIST? IRAN? USA?

Take Care.

And here's a video from YouTube that shows what it looked like live.
