Twitter hack on low-carb cruise – reprehensible! Updated.
Somebody appears to have hacked the Twitter account of Dr Jack Kruse who was to speak on the Low-Carb Carnival cruise ship. A tweet was sent out suggesting that he was planning some kind of bio-terrorist attack. The FBI searched his room and arrested him. Although he was eventually cleared, the ship’s captain refused to let him re-board. It’s unbelievable that some anti-low-carb nut-case would stoop to this kind of thing. Let’s hope the perpetrator is caught and punished.
