Using an exploit in the YouTube commenting system, hackers this weekend sent fans of Justin Bieber to porn sites.
The hackers specifically targeted Bieber’s YouTube pages, using a simple redirect to send users elsewhere.
The hackers also sent users to videos in which it was being reported that Bieber had died in a car accident.
With hundreds of thousands of Bieber video views a day, in most cases by underage girls, it was surely a traumatic experience for many of his fans.
The incident has been blamed on the internet forum 4Chan, although other groups were said to have joined in once the exploit was made public.
It’s good to know that Bieber is so big that even top notch hackers have nothing better to do. Bieber Fever is everywhere!
