Tonight I dropped by the Official Twitter API Documentation, which they make use of Google Groups for their documentation, and much to my surprise the link went right to a porn site!
WARNING: Clicking the ‘Rate Limiting’ Link on the Twitter API doc will lead to NSFW Porn images, and an endless loop of pop ups!! But, incase you want to see this for yourself:
Twitter.com directly links to the API docs from the following page: http://twitter.com/help/api
By clicking ‘The official Twitter API documentation’ on this page.
Every link on the API Google Groups doc page links to: http://handjob-sexackartsylvianelakehiawatha.googlegroups.com/…….
How has this NOT been spotted???? AND, corrected!
Im not sure how their Google Docs page would get hacked, or if their may be a security issue on Google’s end, but this certainly raises concern for the account used for the Twitter API documentation.
