Supreme Court of India's YouTube Channel Hacked to Promote Cryptocurrency

The channel was disabled after streaming unauthorized videos about Ripple Labs' XRP, but services are expected to resume soon.

  • Hackers targeted the Supreme Court's YouTube channel on Friday, displaying videos about the cryptocurrency XRP.
  • A live video titled 'Brad Garlinghouse: Ripple Responds To The SEC's $2 Billion Fine! XRP PRICE PREDICTION' was prominently featured.
  • The channel, which streams live hearings of public interest cases, was taken down to address the security breach.
  • The Supreme Court's IT team is collaborating with the National Informatics Centre (NIC) to resolve the issue.
  • The channel has since been restored, with the unauthorized cryptocurrency content removed.
