Hacker blamed for pornography screened in Chinese college canteen
Internet TV turns X-rated for three minutes while people eat their dinner
Students dining at a vocational college’s canteen in central China were suddenly subjected to hard-core pornography aired on its television screens this week.
The video was shown for about three minutes while more than 30 people were having their dinner on Monday evening, before the staff realised and turned the screen off.
Without elaborating, a staff member at Zhangjiajie Aviation Industry Vocational and Technical College in Hunan province told the South China Morning Post it had reported the incident to authorities.
The college said hackers, rather than an employee, were probably to blame.
“The system might have been hacked, or intentionally manipulated by others,” an employee told video portal Btime.
