Supreme Court YouTube Channel Disabled After Hacking Incident and Cryptocurrency Videos Streamed
The Supreme Court YouTube channel was purportedly hacked on Friday morning, disrupting its usual function of live-streaming court proceedings. Following the breach, the channel began streaming videos promoting cryptocurrency XRP, developed by US-based Ripple Labs. The channel has now been disabled while measures are taken to recover it. The hacking coincidentally occurred during the court's scheduled hearing of important cases.
In addition to cryptocurrency videos, a blank live stream titled 'Brad Garlinghouse: Ripple Responds To The SEC's $2 Billion Fine! XRP PRICE PREDICTION' appeared during the broadcast of a sensitive case. This incident raised concerns over the security of online platforms used by public institutions.
