    I know social engineering is the most frequent form of hacking but you missed the point here sadly. I was ridiculing the deflection of guilt… “My twitter got hacked”, not “my stupid ass” or “account”.

      I get your point, I just don’t think, not stating how it happened or degrading yourself by saying “my stupid ass got hacked” has to be with the intent of deflection of guilt. Being careless doesn’t make you guilty, the person exploiting your carelessness is.
