Hillary Clinton Wikipedia Page Vandalized With Pornographic Images, Pro-Trump Message
Source: Slate
Above: A hacked version of Hillary Clinton's Wikipedia page that appeared for a short time Thursday (the actual page since been restored). We've blurred out the pornographic bits and references to a specific Twitter handle that appears to belong to a woman who has not used her account to express political opinions and does not have any obvious link to Donald Trump or the hack.
For those who are blissfully unaware, cuck is a term of derision commonly used by Trump fans on the white nationalist internet.
Update, 4:15 p.m.: A Twitter user claiming affiliation with a right-wing troll group has taken responsibility for the vandalism.

I was part of an online group in 2000 which was open to the public, not
much functionality at that time so you couldn't lock people out, and we
had to monitor 24/7 and catch them in the act. It got them really ticked
off.

The sick pieces of filth who did that are everywhere, literally. They are a cancerous boil on the ass of America.
Crude I know but OMFG.

(61,900 posts)A common template used by that article and several others
(including Chelsea Clinton's) was vandalized. It should have
been protected because it was widely used, but this trick
has been done before.
