    Hi Ruby, it is an important information for us to know, because users usually post important personal information on Twitter. That includes the location they usually go, photos of their families, or users’ habits. If Twitter accounts are attacked, hackers may use these accounts to post something bad which breaks the reputation of these users. Therefore, it is good to know how to prevent Twitter accounts from being hacked.

    This was really informative I mean at least for me as I am an active twitter user, and as a matter of fact I had like 8 opened sessions for me. I changed my password now and logged out of all sessions.
    Thanks Ruby 🙂
