I was hacked today: my Twitter account, two email addresses, & my phone. It was not due to passwords, they hacked my phone account itself.

No, I do not endorse Trump as the next President. He cannot be the President of the United States. He is racist & a bigot, unfit to lead.
The hacker got access by changing my SIM which redirected texts, then resetting my passwords to trigger two-factor authentication. Intense.

Phishers from North Africa do that against French ISPs clients since years. Processes had to be changed on the ISPs side to fight it

2FA requires two factors. Ownership of the cell number was the first. What was the second?
