Speakeasy: Grassley gets hacked on Twitter

“#WINNING”

one of the tweets a hacker posted to Sen. Chuck Grassley‘s Twitter account Monday afternoon. The hacker, who claimed ties to the group “Anonymous,” railed against Grassley’s support of the Stop Online Piracy Act and the Protect IP Act.

“Dear Iowans, vote against ACTA, SOPA, and PIPA, because this man, Chuck Grassley, wants YOUR internet censored and all of that BS,” the hacker wrote.

Another internet user eventually got control of the account when the hacker tweeted Grassley’s password and eventually all the hacked tweets were taken down.
