Sesame Street YouTube channel gets hacked and filled with porn

Many people have grown up watching popular television series Sesame Street. These are the loveble animated characters that kids from the last few decades have grown to love. The series had started its YouTube channel so that kids of all ages can watch this TV show whenever they please. However as of Sunday, when viewers accessed their YouTube page, they were greeted by something other than these furry muppets.

According to a report by Naked Security, the Sesame Street YouTube channel was hacked; all their videos were deleted and replaced by porn. The hacked website had adult content viewable for the entire world to watch. The channels information had also been changed with a summary that read, “WHO DOESN'T LOVE PORN KIDS? RIGHT! EVERYONE LOVES IT! IM MREDXWX AND MY PARTNER MRSUICIDER91 ARE HERE TO BRING YOU MANY NICE CONTENT! PLEASE DON'T LET SESAME STREET TO GET THIS ACCOUNT BACK KIDS :( PLEASE...LET ME AND MRSUICIDER91 HAVE IT AND WE GONNA MAKE ALL THE AMERICA HAPPY!”

Google had taken the video down and the person who allegedly hacked the site had put his name on the channel’s profile as Mredxwx. However, shortly after that, the alleged hacker had denied any such activity and posted a YouTube video indicating the same. The website states that there is no word on how the website was hacked.

Let us know your reactions on Sesame Street’s YouTube channel being hacked in the comments below.
