Hack facebook, Twitter and other site With andriod app "Droidsheep"
DriodSheep is awesome Session Hijacking Android app that can be use to hijack Wifi Sessions. Currently It support Open and WEP Encrypted networks that includes WPA and WPA2 networks (PSK)
DroidSheep
enables Android-based man in the middle attacks against a wide range
of Web sites, including Facebook.com, Flickr.com, Twitter.com,
Linkedin.com, and non-encrypted services like “maps” on Google. There
are many users that do not known that air is the transmission medium
when using WiFi. Therefore information is not only transferred to its
receiver but also to any other party in the network within the range of
the radio waves.
Usually nothing special happens because
the WiFi users discard packets that are not destined to
themselves. DroidSheep does not do this. It reads all the packets
looking at their contents.
Is a website sending a clear recognition
feature within a message’s content, which can identify a user
(“SessionID”), then DroidSheep is able to read it although it is not
intended to external users. Moreover DroidSheep can use this token to
use it as its own. The server can’t decide whether the authorized user
or DroidSheep has sent the request.

How can I protect myself?
The only satisfying answer is: SSL respectively HTTPS.
Many providers already offer HTTPS, even facebook, however it must often be enabled in the settings first.
When using HTTPS the data are still sent to alle participants in
the WiFi-network, too, but because the data has been encrypted it is
impossible for DroidSheep to decrypt the contect of a message -
remaining only a complete mess of letters, with which an attacker can’t
do anything.
