Madrid's New Electric Bike System Rubs One Out

MADRID, Spain—Hackers in the Spanish capital had a rather productive week in Madrid with the launch of a brand-new electric bike hire system, when they managed to gain access to the system's docking stations and place on the "touchscreens of the BiciMad terminals an obscene clip of a faceless man moving his penis up and down, delivering a shock to unsuspecting users," reported rt.com. Bonopark, the company that operates the system, said it was aware of the situation but declined to comment further. One of the first notification of the hack came via a tweet by Ignacio Bazarra, former director of the Spanish news agency EFE. “BICIMAD's docking stations hacked with porn. Madrid Town Hall should speak up about all these disasters," Bazarra wrote in Spanish. The article added, "Besides porn, there were plenty of other – more trivial – glitches plaguing the docking stations during the first week," but it's our guess that most people will remember, and talk about, the porn.
