- Hours after the US airstrike on Iranian territory, Iranian-backed hackers took down US President Donald Trump’s social media platform.
- Users were struggling to access Truth Social in the early morning following the alleged hack.
- As the US continues to insert itself into the ongoing Iran-Israel conflict, the US government believes more cyberattacks could happen.

So there could be hacking done, or just a bitcoin transfer.

It's absolutely hacking those computer, just not the site. I just don't want to get overly excited for something that doesn't have much meat to it.

Or they just found a buffer overflow bug on their border router/firewall. I can't imagine Truth Social has a keen network engineering team keeping up to patching and vulnerabilities.
