NRL player Jarryd Hayne has been caught in an embarrassing pornography gaffe while presenting an online safety talk at a Gold Coast high school.
Hayne’s online browsing history was being shown on a screen at the school, featuring mostly sports images, when a pornographic website was displayed on the screen to the 200-plus students in attendance at Robina State High School.
Norton Security, on whose behalf Hayne was presenting the talk, said afterwards the images had come from another device that had entered the network.
“It’s unfortunate and all I can say [is] it definitely was not Jarryd’s device,” Hayne’s co-host from Norton, Nick Savvides, said.
The demonstration was set up to highlight the dangers of joining open WiFi networks, where “middle men” could seize data and view activity on the phone while connected without the user’s knowledge.
