Jakarta Post Porn
Nov 13th, 2006, in Internet, News, by PatungThe Jakarta Post website and Chinese porn.
[March 2007 – note the porn pop-ups from the Jakarta Post site have long since been removed.]
The Jakarta Post website is a peculiar beast at the best of times but running pop-up scripts that lead to porn pages would hardly seem to befit a brand and company that has some considerable ‘capital’ and is well regarded by many people, especially foreigners.
When using Firefox, but not Internet Explorer, this is an image I see at top left of the Post website, sometimes there are two of them, located at [url removed].
Within the code of the pages of the Post site there are links to a popup script, http tan1_365tc_com/popup1.js, which produces pop-ups that go to landing pages with images like this:
“Pops” can be a highly lucrative method of generating income in certain industries, like porn, but for a serious website like the Post to be running them is just bizarre.

Is it hacked?

Indra I’ve heard some people say that it’s a hack, but I doubt it.
-
Yeah, it might be somekind of defacing.
For me, it’s nonsense that a credible sites is promoting porn. -

Just been to the site and I didn’t find anything as mentioned above, but hey, it’s been more than a month already.
But, even with the adult pop-up removed, I find the amount of ads running on their homepage still pretty bizarre. I count approximately 10?! But it gets worse, at Kompas.com, I counted 15 and at Detik.com I lost count.
Generating some money with a site is fine of course, but isn’t this too much and becoming a stroboscopic collection of ads? I’ve seen it on many Indonesian web properties, does it work?

Knock…knock…
why are we so paronoid about sex ?
What’s wrong about it ? Let them (JP, Kompas, CNN, Fox, News, Times, etc) advertise any sex related website if they want to.
Who are we to judge what is good or bad for others ? Don’t be such hypocrite….
