36. Hackers infect satellite with Shatner virus
8 months ago
The Far Polo L1 satellite, placed in geostationary orbit to broadcast TV programs to a global audience, appears to have been infected by a virus known as W32/Shatner. Under the control of sci-fi obsessed hackers, the Shatner virus is embedding subliminal images related to Star Trek into popular television programs such as "The Simpsons", "Friends" and "Doogie Howser MD" as they are beamed down to viewers on Earth.
Subliminal images placed into the TV programs include images of legendary Star Trek villains the Klingons and actor William Shatner, with the message: "This is W32/Shatner. All your TV are belong to us".
