Television, TV, all the names we have for our little box of electronic joy.  Oh, but back in the day, these little TV devices were absolutely hackable, and frequently attacked by a multitude of humans with ill intent.  Some of these hacks were full of hilarity, others were probably quite a bit more concerning and caused a panic.  Max Headroom, and so many other notable hacks.  Some targeted children's shows, regular broadcasting, or just for the purposes to rant on live TV.  But, what a shock to find, sit your kids down to watch their favorite TV show, then suddenly a full on porn just pops on up...oh joy!    

Hope you all enjoy the show today and everyone has an awesome week!
