The YouTube channel of Sesame Street has been removed following the upload of multiple pornographic videos by hackers.
It appears that the modifications were executed by an individual named Mredxwx, although someone with that username has refuted any involvement.
Accompanying the adult videos was a message that read: “Who doesn’t like porn kids?”
Reports indicate that the Sesame Street account was taken down within 20 minutes after the issue was identified.
In response, Google – the parent company of YouTube – stated: “YouTube’s Community Guidelines explicitly forbid pornographic content. As always, we act promptly to remove inappropriate material once we are informed.”
The beloved American children’s program boasts over 140,000 subscribers, with its videos having been viewed nearly half a billion times.
