The Supreme Court's YouTube channel has reportedly been hacked and is showing videos promoting cryptocurrency developed by a US-based company called Ripple Labs.
According to media reports, the incident came to light when a blank video titled "Brad G Garlinghouse: Ripple Responds To The SEC's $2 Billion Fine! XRP PRICE PREDICTION" went live on the channel.
Now the channel’s link has been disabled.
One of the media reports quoted a senior SC official as saying that the website “appears to have been compromised”.
The apex court uses the channel primarily to live stream hearings of Constitution Bench cases and issues if public interest. The channel was created in 2018.
Brad Garlinghouse is the CEO of Ripple Labs and his firm is in legal disputes with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
