Anyone who passed by some streets in Fafe last night must have initially thought that they were seeing poorly the images of a pornographic film that was being broadcast on the digital billboards that the City Council was going to officially inaugurate this Thursday, as part of the ceremonies of the 25th of April. In truth no. The municipality was the target of a computer attack, which resulted in the usual institutional information being replaced by images from adult films.
Today, the Tourism councilor, Paula Nogueira, lamented the situation caused by a “computer attack” and assured that the Municipality has already filed a complaint against unknown people to the authorities, who “are investigating the case”.
The network of Digital Billboards interactive, according to municipal information, aims to provide “information aimed at residents and visitors”, namely about “transport timetables, cultural and sporting agenda and tourist information of interest, such as places to visit, accommodation and restaurants”.
When at rest, according to the municipality, the digital billboards “activate continuous information regarding events and activities on the agenda”. This digital system also makes it possible to consult public notices and official municipal documents.
