Bob Dylan’s Twitter account hacked, declares Britney is dead
Hackers take over the Twitter accounts of Bob Dylan and Sony Music, and use both to falsely claim that pop singer Britney Spears has died.
The hack is quickly discovered and the offending posts removed.
The cyberattacks come in a week which saw the deaths of musicians George Michael, Greg Lake and Rick Parfitt, in a year that also saw the world lose musical icons Prince, David Bowie and Leonard Cohen.
