"This is not true! I D4rkB1t did not twit those malicious stuff!
Please be advised and revise this. For as you see I leaked the username and password of the Twitter account of GMANews.
Please get things straight, I did not do this to become a pervert!

This is not about stupidity, but a message to webdevs.. Learn to secure your site, user accounts and password with personal information are being stored there... We have to be ready for such cyber terrorism..
No "database" data was altered or removed..
