Must have come as a complete shock to this grifter, given that with all previous breaches of 'the distribution of hacked materials' rule, only right-leaning twitter users were sanctioned, and left-progressive journalists had complete free rein.
That Wired itself has not fired this guy implicates Wired for crimes of blackmail and intimidation and Matt Walsh should be suing the company outright for those crimes and running a criminal enterprise.
The hacker went by the alias "Doomed," who said, "The intent was to make funny tweets, as Matt Walsh likes to ‘trigger’ people. We caused no financial harm, threatened anyone, [nor] ruined anything."
Oh, well, that's fine then. Carry on. As long as you're just poking fun, hijacking someone's Twatter account and commandeering his smartphone is fair play. Can't wait to hear the joke you're gonna make about Walsh's W-2 form.
2FA isnt if you use a standalone 2FA app or key to authenticate.
Once they had the number and sim they were able to use the "forgot password" stuff for Twitter which would give them access to his DMs there, do the same for iCloud and then if he had anything sync'd to the cloud it would restore to that iphone, same with GMail.

Wired is covering for him. Matt's bringing out the lawyers.

"It's just a prank, bro!"
"there's cameras!"
If that's really all it was, then he could have stopped at that. But he didn't- which means he's clearly lying.
This proves that he was a Russian Bot. There's no other explanation according to Wired and all their friends in the MSM.
Seems like that's the kind of thing that should be against the rules across the board.
So reading that, is 2FA entirely useless if they can fake authenticate it on a SIM swapped device?
If someone is determined to get your info, it seems like they'll just go ahead and get it no matter what you do.
