The 25 year old French based hacker famously cracked over 300 private documents and was able to break down Twitter security as well as Twitter Google Apps by figuring out that most people use the same password for everything. On top of that he hacked into President Barack Obama as well as Britney Spears Twitter accounts, Hacker Croll said he doesn't crack into account out of malice, just to show how susceptible and how easy it is to do. His basic technique was to get the information of the employees, makes lists of where they live and different facts about them and make profiles with them. When he was able to crack into one of the Twitter employee's Gmail account, he reset their password and changed it, locking out the original user and using the e-mail to gain access to other personal sites.
Hacker Croll was arrested in late March because of the stolen Twitter corporate account information.
