The Supreme Court's YouTube channel was compromised Friday, displaying videos promoting a cryptocurrency developed by Ripple Labs, a US-based company.
Currently, a blank video titled 'Brad Garlinghouse: Ripple Responds To The SEC's $2 Billion Fine! XRP PRICE PREDICTION' is live on the hacked channel.
The apex court streams live hearings of constitution benches and public interest matters on YouTube. A considerable decision in 2018 led to the live-streaming of all constitution bench hearings, a policy unanimously decided by a recent full court meeting headed by then CJI UU Lalit.
