Twitter reinstates account of hacker suspended for leaking Democrat phone numbers
Guccifer 2.0 has wreaked havoc on Hillary Clinton and other Democrat politicians, but the hacker's Twitter account is now back online.
Twitter reinstated an account on Sunday that was suspended last week after it leaked the personal contact details of Democratic politicians in the US.
"Here I am! They'll have to try much harder to block me!" the account tweeted.
The hacker, known as "Guccifer 2.0" released details belonging to 193 former and current members of the US Congress. Twitter and WordPress both suspended the hacker's account. The Guccifer 2.0 WordPress blog currently features a notice saying that some information was removed from the site due to its privacy policy.
This latest leak follows an incident in July, in which Guccifer leaked 19,000 emails from Democratic National Committee members and also took responsibility for releasing a treasure trove of documents about presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
The hacker name Guccifer has previously been associated with leaks about the Bush family and the hacking of "Downton Abbey" writer Julian Fellowes.
Twitter did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
