Activist DeRay Mckesson on being hacked:
After regaining control of his Twitter account, Mckesson explained that the hacker or hackers were able to take over by convincing Verizon to reset his SIM. With the SIM reset, the person responsible was able to receive text messages intended for Mckesson and therefore bypass the two-factor authentication the activist used to keep his account secure.
I doubt Verizon will fire anyone over this, unless they can be replaced with a scab.
Here’s the thing – they SHOULDN’T fire anyone over this if that person followed Verizon policies. You can’t blame a frontline phone rep for following procedure. You need to fix the policy.
If management thought they could minimize something sufficiently embarrassing, they’d throw someone under the bus in a New York minute. Whether a rep was following policy won’t matter to them.
