India’s Twitter isn’t really safe. After series of hacks last week by a group who calls them ‘Legion’, it’s time for journalists to be worried.
After Rahul Gandhi and Vijay Mallya, Legion just hacked NDTV journalists Barkha Dutt and Ravish Kumar’s Twitter profiles.

The hackers posted on credentials of Dutt’s email account and also a partial email dump.

Legion kept on posting tweets that confirmed they had taken over the control of both the profiles.

The hackers have also warned to hack Lalit Modi’s Twitter account soon.
