Sandro Marcos' Twitter account hacked
The Twitter account of Sandro Marcos, the son of former senator Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr., was seized by a hacker on Friday night.
All of Sandro's previous tweets were deleted and his name was temporarily changed to "sandro murks."
The hacker also pinned Sandro's location as "living in the PH ironically."
The violation of privacy inspired outrage from Sandro's fans, who were distressed over Sandro's disappearance from Twitter.

Sandro seemed to regain control of his username at around 8 p.m., although it looks like he had to make a new account — losing all the followers of his old account in the process.
"Finally got my account back. Thank you Twitter! I'm back," he announced. —Jessica Bartolome/JST, GMA News
