Twitter users who shared their phone numbers over the site have been shown just how easy it is for their details to be abused. The unfortunate users received spam in the form of cat facts sent to their mobiles.
A coder and privacy advocate who wishes to remain anonymous, explained the antics were an attempt to “spread awareness of operational security.”
The only way to stop the deluge of cat facts is to tweet: ‘Meow, I <3 cat facts @Snowden’.
The stunt has kicked off an amusing Twitter trend.
