Traffic jerked to a standstill as rubbernecking motorists ogled a
pornographic clip posted by hackers on big-screen video billboards in
Moscow, Russian news agencies reported Friday.

The company that operates the billboards, Panno.ru, said hackers were
behind a graphic sex video broadcast late Thursday night on two roadside
screens along Moscow's Garden Ring Road, one of the city's busiest
arteries.

"This was an attack by hackers on the computers, as a result of which one
of the commercial video clips was swapped for an indecent video," Panno.ru
commercial director Viktor Laptev told RIA-Novosti.
