A self-proclaimed “super hacker” temporarily hacked the Disneyland Resort Instagram account early Thursday morning, sharing racist and homophobic posts.
“I am a super hacker that is here to bring revenge upon Disney land,” wrote David Do, alongside a photo of what appears to be himself, saying that he is sick of employees mocking him. “…Who’s the tough guy now, Jerome?”
The hacker frequently claimed to have “invented covid” in his posts and used the N-word.
In addition to the post, he also shared it on the accounts, Instagram Story.

The Instagram page currently has 8.4 million followers, mostly filled with family and children.
Shortly after the incident, the account was temporarily disabled and re-emerged without any hacked posts.
Other social media accounts for Disneyland didn’t appear to be affected.
A Disneyland spokesperson confirmed that the account was “compromised” earlier in the day.
The official stated, “We worked quickly to remove the deplorable content, secure our accounts, and our security specialists are starting an investigation.”
