【双语新闻】法男子入侵奥巴马微博账号被捕~~ 狠人啊 （转）
[size=3][b][color=#660000]一名25岁的法国无业男子近日因非法入侵美国总统奥巴马的推特（Twitter）账号而被警方逮捕。据悉，这名男子还曾经试图入侵“小甜甜”布兰妮等名人的账号。据警方介绍，这名男子，以网名“黑客克罗尔”现身互联网，他是在获取了推特管理员的账号后进入上述个人用户的账号的，而且他入侵的目的并不是获取敏感资料而只是想要挑战一下自我，同时探寻这些名人的隐私。目前，美国联邦调查局（FBI）的探员正在法国对此事进行深入调查。
An unemployed Frenchman has been arrested for targeting the Twitter accounts of President Barack Obama and singer Britney Spears, French police said on Wednesday.
Captain Adeline Champagnat, a senior member of the police cyber crimes unit, said the 25-year-old man gained access to passwords of Twitter administrators and used them to try to break into the accounts of US politicians and stars.
"He didn't get as far as their personal accounts. But he had gained control of Twitter," she told Reuters Television in an interview.
She said the FBI had tipped off the French police in July last year that one or more people were trying to get access to Twitter and had gained control of the social network.
That enabled them to create and delete accounts and steal confidential information.
The hacker, who went by the online name of Hacker Croll, is under arrest in the central French town of Clermont Ferrand.
He was known to have carried out minor internet fraud but in this case was driven by the thrill of the challenge and appeared to be more interested in the private life of his victims than on obtaining sensitive data, Champagnat said.
"His aim wasn't to make money. It was simply to show that he was able to access accounts of Twitter members. And the best proof of that is that he did screen grabs of certain confidential data which he tried to post on blogs that are reserved for pirates or hackers," she said.
She said several FBI agents were currently in France to help their French counterparts carry out searches.
"The collaboration was very good with the FBI and it's always very good with the FBI, because there's a real exchange of information. It's good cooperation to arrest the offender," she said.[/color][/b][/size]
