Former 49ers running back and rugby league superstar Jarryd Hayne was doing a public service back in Australia. He was asked to speak to some high schoolers about the importance of cyber security when things went very, very wrong.
Hayne’s phone was hacked on stage as part of a demonstration of how easy it is for someone to get access to your personal info. What appeared on the LIVE-STREAMED GIANT PROJECTOR was porn — a lot of porn.
Hayne was stunned. He stood there while his private stash was public in front of over 100 teenagers. The expert giving the demonstration rushed to pull down the images -- but it was too late. To make matters worse, it was all recorded by local news.
To his credit, Hayne handled it all way better than any of us would have. Dude stayed pretty calm and the presentation continued. Why the heck you wouldn’t ensure your phone was as clean as possible before this demo is beyond us.
