Porn Video Sneaks Into Nokia N8 Chinese Announcement Broadcast [Nokia]

Make this a lesson in methods to drum up some much-needed interest in a should-be-obsolete phone: ensure your Chinese live-stream announcement gets hacked with a snippet of porn. Works a charm!

On Wednesday, China introduced China to the N8 with a live-streaming video on several Chinese websites. To this point, par the course. However, they probably weren’t expecting one of the most streams, on Sina.com (supposedly some of the largest websites on the earth; Wikipedia says that in April 2003 the ” infotainment” website was receiving 3bn page views daily), to wreck out into a porno.

By the sounds of it, Nokia hurriedly pulled the stream, and stated that it was not behind the mistake, and may try to find out who did it, yada yada yada.

Really, that is probably the most effective thing which can’ve happened for the N8. Finally individuals are talking about it! [ Sina via iFeng via MICGadget ]
