Russian Hacker Sentenced for Big-Screen Porn Show

Igor Blinnikov, a resident of Novorossiysk, was sentenced to 1.5 years in prison for demonstrating a hard-core pornography film on a giant video screen installed on a central Moscow highway in January of 2010. Blinnikov managed to get access to the screen from his home computer in Novorossiysk. The surprise porn show caused a midnight traffic jam on the Moscow highway. Blinnikov was detected and charged with “illegal access to computer information” and “illegal distribution of pornographic materials.” He pleaded guilty and explained his actions were a “joke.” In February of 2010 Blinnikov was sentenced to 5 years of imprisonment for possessing 13 grams of marijuana, so he should spend approximately 6 years in prison.
