ABC News Facebook Page Hack: What Happened?

Tuesday saw ABC News' official Facebook page embroiled in unexpected controversy as hackers took over, posting provocative content. Around 1:20pm AEDT, followers were caught off guard when the page’s banner was changed to showcase British OnlyFans creator Bonnie Blue. This was just the start of a series of eyebrow-raising posts.

The Provocative Posts

The hack didn't stop with Bonnie Blue's image. Another post featured a headshot of adult content performer Lily Phillips, adding to the explicit theme. The most peculiar post, though, was an image of Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, captured mid-bite into a sausage roll, adding a humorous twist to the otherwise adult-centric theme. The posts triggered a flurry of comments and reactions before page administrators swiftly removed them.

“Sky News are gonna have a field day,” one user commented, capturing the general sentiment and surprise among the page’s followers.

Public Reaction and Aftermath

The breach was met with a mix of amusement and concern from the public. While some users mocked the incident’s bizarre nature, others expressed worry over the security of ABC’s digital assets. Communications Minister Anika Wells, who oversees the ABC, was reportedly contacted for comment, although no official statement has been released yet.

Swift Action Taken

The posts were removed within minutes, but not before attracting dozens of comments. ABC's quick response highlights the importance of digital security, especially for high-profile organizations. The incident serves as a reminder of the vulnerabilities that can exist even on major platforms like Facebook.
