Texas Traffic Signs Hacked With Anti-Trump and Anti-Hillary Messages (hackread.com)
An anonymous reader writes: Someone is hacking the Texas Department of Transportation (TXDOT) electronic message boards and displaying anti-Trump and anti-Hillary messages. For example, one message read "DONALD TRUMP IS A ... SHAPE SHIFTING LIZARD!" while the other read "HILLARY FOR PRISON." The hacker appears to be a supporter of Bernie Sanders, displaying "BERNIE FOR PRESIDENT" on the message boards. One of the messages read "FREE BARRETT BROWN," an imprisoned U.S. journalist and alleged unofficial spokesperson for Anonymous. Not all the messages have been political, however. In reference to an incident in which Zookeepers shot and killed a rare gorilla after a 3-year-old boy fell into its enclosure at the Cincinnati Zoo, a message read "GORILLA DESERVED IT." The reports mention the defacing occurred a couple of weeks ago.
Agreed, but even that won't always work out. Recently, a Finnish subway driver wrote 'wish I had a beer' on the in-car display, and a media shitstorm ensued. The subway operator had the driver scolded, though not fired, and issued a statement on their stance against promoting alcoholic drinks.
