For 15 long, glorious minutes, members of the parliament (and assembled journalists) were treated to porno photos on the internal TV channel. It’s believed hackers retaliated to the government’s commands that ISPs block porn by August 11th for Ramadan.

August 11th is the beginning of the Muslim Ramadan festival, where they abstain from eating, drinking, having sex, and evidently viewing porn online. Someone in Indonesia wasn’t happy about the government’s initiative, and tapped into their parliament’s internal TV channel, normally used for the far more family-friendly screening of political schedules.
