A blank video with the title “Brad Garlinghouse: Ripple Responds To The SEC’s $2 Billion Fine! XRP PRICE PREDICTION” is currently live on the hacked channel.
The apex court has been using YouTube to stream live hearings of cases listed before constitution benches and matters involving public interest.
In a unanimous decision taken by the recent full court meeting headed by then CJI UU Lalit, the top court decided to live-stream proceedings of all constitution bench hearings following a path-breaking verdict on the matter in 2018.
Recently, Supreme Court also live streamed hearing in the sensitive RG Kar hospital and college rape and murder case before the hack occurred.
