Think you wake up in the morning and open your professional networking profile linkedin, and there is a smiling picture of former US President Barack Obama’s profile on his biggest political enemy Donald Trump! You will also start scratching your head as to what is happening.
Yes, it is not a joke, but true. Recently, millions of LinkedIn users from all over the world were surprised when they found that Barack Obama’s official LinkedIn profile was replaced by Donald Trump’s photo instead of his own photo.
Debate on the Internet, screenshots went viral
As soon as the eyes of people fell on this strange exchange, the screenshots went viral on Twitter (now x) and other social media platforms. People started speculating in various ways. Some were calling it a conspiracy of a well-planned hacking, while someone was calling it a major technical disturbance (glitch) in the LinkedIn system. Those who made the mim, got a new treasure from home.
Is Obama’s account really hacked?
This incident is also more shocking because Barack Obama and Donald Trump are considered to be a staunch rival of each other in politics. Both ideologies and methods of working are completely different. In such a situation, seeing the picture of another on the profile of one was nothing short of a political earthquake.
So far neither Obama’s team nor LinkedIn has received any official statement on the matter. However, experts believe that it is not easy to hack a high-profile person’s account in this way. Therefore, it is more likely that this may be the result of a technical fault in the server of LinkedIn, which turned the profile photos.
At the moment, this disturbance has been fixed and his own photo on Obama’s profile is back. But this exchange for a few hours has given a new topic of discussion and entertainment on the Internet.
