What we know about how Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey's account was hacked, and the group called 'Chuckling Squad' who is claiming responsibility

Before claiming ownership over Dorsey's account hack, the "Chuckling Squad," as it identifies itself, hacked famous YouTubers. James Charles, Shane Dawson, King Bach, Etika, and Amanda Cerny were all hacked in the past two weeks.

Charles, the most recent hack, alleged in a tweet threatening legal action that AT&T was to blame for the "Chuckling Squad" gaining access to his account.

Twitter has yet to confirm who hacked Dorsey's account or how, but while it was hacked, Dorsey's account tweeted the link to the same Discord server whose admin posted screenshots from inside deceased YouTuber Etika's Google Mail account.
