In this photo, Trump speaks at a 'Make America Great Again' rally in Phoenix, Arizona, on August 22, 2017.A hacker in the Netherlands successfully logged into President Donald Trump's Twitter account by guessing his shockingly insecure passwords – twice.

Then, on October 16, 2020, Gevers took a second crack at the account. Iphoto for mac free. download full version. On his fifth try, the hacker successfully logged into the president's Twitter profile by guessing the password 'maga2020!'
The October breach was confirmed by Dutch prosecutors on Wednesday, but officials said they would not press charges against Grevers because he reported the hack and acted in an 'ethical' way.
'We believe the hacker has actually penetrated Trump's Twitter account, but has met the criteria that have been developed in case law to go free as an ethical hacker,' the public prosecutor's office said in a statement, The Guardian reported.
Though hacking is a criminal offense in the Netherlands, the prosecutors said that Grevers acted with 'responsible disclosure,' and therefore will avoid facing any jail time, Vox reported.
On October 22, Grevers shared screenshots from inside the account, and was open about what he had done in order to expose, according to the BBC, 'vulnerabilities in the internet.'
That same day, the hacker appeared to tweet some advice to the president, writing that he should switch on two-factor authentication in order to add an extra security protection on his account.
'It started six years ago. And hopefully, it will be the last time in 2020. Please switch on two-factor authentication on all of your accounts. 🙏,' Grevers tweeted.
