Oh no, Ono: Someone hacked the Twitter account of UBC's president

Jan 26 2022, 12:47 am

On Tuesday afternoon, a bunch of random tweets briefly showed up on the Twitter account of UBC President Santa Ono.

The hack seemed to happen just after 4 pm, and ads for cheap Ray-Ban sunglasses started popping up.

At least 20 of the tweets showed up in a five-minute span before being quickly deleted.

But by 4:20 pm, things seemed to be back to normal now.
