Apart from being the top chess player, the Dutch Grand Master Anish Giri is also an active Twitterati. His constant banters with world champion Magnus Carlsen and other chess players are often a source of entertainment for fans. However, his love for Twitter appears to be dwindling with time. Perhaps his account being hacked in February this year could be one of the reasons he is supporting Elon Musk’s keen observation.
Very weird hack. Some of the screenshots I saw passing by were edited (hacker also DMed all sorts of inappropriate messages to many), but actually I really had an argument with PH about prep.
Didn’t want to make it public, but he kinda forces my hand by dismissing it here.👇 https://t.co/2U82HZUr2l— Anish Giri (@anishgiri) February 13, 2022
