Horizonte (Cuatro) X account hacked: 54,000 followers

Horizonte's X account hijacked by spam

The Cuatro programme proge up without its X account. It wasn't a mistake but a hijacking: the account of the programme Horizonte, with over 54,000 trinc, was found full of spam and without a single official statement. And the silence began to be noticed.

The facts are simple: an account with visibility, a loyal audience and a consolidated brand is left at the mercy of whoever took it. There are no explanations from the network; no date for recovery; only memes and speculation online about the scope of the assault.

The value of an account, in the crosshairs

The incident brings back an uncomfortable debate: if an account with that relevance falls, what happens to normal accounts? The security of social platforms is once again a recurring topic, this time with the sector focusing on verified accounts and their protection. Some recall that in similar cases, recovery usually takes hours, not weeks.

Silence as the protagonist

While those responsible for the programme say nothing, the network fills with sarcasm. Symbols and winks appear that turn the incident into a parallel spectacle. Some speak of "hybrid warfare" and others simply demand it be investigated as a crime. The absence of official reaction is, in itself, news.

With precedents of other accounts recovered in 72 hours, it is most likely that Horizonte will recover its profile and it will have to be cleaned. But the episode remains: a reminder that institutional silence in the face of a security incident never helps. And something tells us this won't be the last case that leaves an entire audience without explanations.
