The first clue popped up on Omar Abdulaziz’s phone four years ago. A Saudi dissident attending college in Montreal, Abdulaziz got a cryptic message from Twitter. His account had been penetrated by a “state sponsored” actor. He should take precautions to protect his personal information, the company advised, offering no further details.
Abdulaziz didn’t think much of it at the time. He changed his password and switched to two-factor authentication. “I thought this is, like, a problem, it was solved and it’s not happening again,” says Abdulaziz. “I didn’t know how big that was.”

I don't do twitter... it's a HUGE waste of time... but I have to ask: Why do we CARE about Jamal Khashoggi's murder? He isn't an American Citizen... wasn't in the US when he was killed... and isn't, in fact, related to anything dealing with the USA. He is a Saudi Citizen, killed by Saudi's on Saudi soil (YES, their Embassies ARE their soil, just as our Embassies are). Are we willing to spill American Citizen blood and treasure for an act by a State on one Citizen? If so, then do we do it for Cuba, Honduras, in Britain or any European Nation? Do we act as a World Police because it's a Nation some people in the US just doesn't like? Is his death a good thing? Far from it... but does it involve the USA?
As for a twitter hack... just don't use it. Problem solved...
