Your site is getting hacked, you don't know how the hackers are doing it, what do you do ops wise? Take the whole site down for a few hours? Because the entire platform is compromised, how do you handle that?

What blows my mind is how does Twitter not have a "maintenance" mode -- where no new tweets can be posted and the site is essentially read-only?
What makes you think they don’t? We had one on Reddit in 2008.
Given how huge this hack is, and how little the BTC reward is going to be, I'm tempting to think this is either: - a test of a new hacking system - a demonstration to a big client - a first shot to threat some entity - a diversion while they get the real loot And that the BTC messages are just a way to justify it so it looks like a simple scam. Such a hack is worth way, WAY more than the few BTC it could bring.
Twitter should suspend the entire platform until they can credibly fix this and prevent it in the future. An attacker could drop AMZN stock by 10% in minutes with just the wrong tweet from Bezos.
EDIT: Not that it would matter here. Just curious.
