Iraqi officials have ordered all electronic advertising screens to be shut down in Baghdad after a hacker used one to show a pornographic film.
It happened at a major road junction in the Iraqi capital. Videos have been shared widely on social media.
A man has been arrested in connection with the incident, police say.
A statement said the suspect was a technician who had financial issues with the company that runs the advertising screens.
He was said to have acted in retaliation.
