Russians using smart TVs noticed a strange message on victory day

The online Russian TV schedule page looked funny with the name of every programme changed

Instead of the usual listing of channels, programmes were changed to “The blood of thousands of Ukrainians and hundreds of murdered children is on your hands,”

That message on screens also read “TV and the authorities are lying. No to war.”

This morning the online Russian TV schedule page was hacked

Pro-Moscow messaging was loud and clear on Monday as Russia celebrated Victory Day

But the hack aimed to stop that, targeting ordinary Russians sitting by their televisions or looking things up on their search engines.

According to reports from Wash post, the anti-war message that appeared on the screens of smart TVs also appeared on the platforms of Yandex, Russia’s IT giant.

Like Google, it combines many products under one umbrella, including a search engine and a service providing TV programming schedules.

On that page, the daily programs for state-run Channel One and Russia-1 were also defaced early Monday.

Senate upholds vote to release Epstein files despite White House delay attempt; Trump signals intent to sign bill.

The White House tried to delay a vote on the release of Justice Department files connected to Jeffrey Epstein, even as former President Trump insisted there was nothing to hide.

Despite this, the Senate approved the measure exactly as it passed the House, ignoring amendments proposed by Trump’s aides. This move clears the path for the files to be made public in full.

Trump has indicated he intends to sign the bill, marking a significant shift after the White House’s attempt to block or delay the vote proved unsuccessful. The decision could have wide-reaching implications for transparency and ongoing investigations.
