Feminist Current's website and Twitter account have been hacked.

Just heard that. Still exploring but their articles aren't showing. Anyone have any clues?

I forget exactly what the comment was but something along the lines of how they're obsessed with their penises. And if a person is hacking someone else's website and posting articles about penises, I'd say that's a pretty fair comment!

Given MN don't monitor our comments, they only act if someone's reported it, we must be being watched - and it plainly touched a nerve, I'd say!

I always find it very interesting which posts or topics those who monitor our posts appear to find too close to the bone to be allowed to stand. It's an education in itself.

Too close indeed in this case

I looked though the rules and the only thing I could find is that someone could've claimed it was 'obscene' because I said the 'd' word instead of penis. Which is a joke considering the language used on the rest of the site (not just by me) because how could they claim it was 'phobic' when nothing about trans was even on this thread about hackers posting vile things on a feminist website?

There is an update from Feminist Current on their facebook page with info about help needed. www.facebook.com/FeministCurrent/posts/4198519366852877

Even if you aren't on facebook you should be able to read it, you just have to keep getting rid of the irritating pop up box asking you to join facebook.

Am disgusted to see that twitter is still allowing whoever has hacked the twitter account is still there. What the hell is wrong with these people? Obviously it isn't a tech issue as they are a tech company. Makes it look like they are letting it go on when they could stop it.

Shame on twitter. If anyone is on twitter can you tell that what w***s they are for not acting with due diligence and care of their customers.

At least the web company have acted.

Feminist Current is back on line!

.... The reason I am a target is because I come from the left and have long identified as a feminist (though I have begun to distance myself from such labels, preferring free thought and to identify myself as someone who advocates for women’s rights, so as to wrest myself from ideological conformity and limitations on my free speech and independent thought). ....

But seems the twitter account is still a bit??? WtF twitter - sort it out.

Twitter must have had plenty of reports of hacking
