The teenaged pranksters of 4chan.org's /b/ discussion board flooded YouTube with pornographic clips Wednesday and Thursday, according to various reports.
YouTube has strong filters and dedicated employees seeking out and deleting porn from the site, but it wasn't enough to handle the onslaught of uploading clips. To get around the filters, many of the clips appeared innocuous for the first 20-30 seconds, the tech blog Ars Technica reported, but then cut abruptly to hardcore sex scenes. Participants on 4chan's /b/ board and the similar eBaum's World site had declared Wednesday to be "Porn Day." I guess I have no problem with declaring porn day, epecially on Hump Day, but it may be a little shocking for some, when they are watching their favorite Food Network star cooking a meal with an inapropriate tossed salad.
