because tonig.ht put a message on their webpage
and now they fixed the issue after contacting twitter. they're good guys. and the attack from tonig.ht is over.
from the a$$ holes at turbocashgenerator.com it continues.
after looking at their site - they sell a software package that lets people spam from a home computer. and most of the spamming accounts look like they are posting to all the trending topics (it isn't just about #iranelection). i think this is a case of collateral damage.
the best thing is to let twitter know. it could be coming from a huge number of hijacked computers, a little joke from some fellow anon's.
twitter will eventually get it under control, i suspect.
in the meantime - rt them to @spam (minus the hashtags - of course). send an email (if you can come up with email for twitter . . .). if you know someone who knows jack dorsey (the founder of twitter), tell them.
and, certainly, the fucktards at turbocashgenerator.com deserve any punishment that someone creative enough can come up with - i'm down for any good ideas.
