How to hijack social media accounts without any hacking required
Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and any number of smaller social networks we don’t even know all seem to suffer from the same problem: ignoring the fact that domains cease to exist.
Only just today, I’ve spotted mail from LinkedIn to many accounts in over a dozen spamtrap domains. Twitter likewise, and Facebook, even more.

How is this in the interest of the social networks or the account owners?
