The video for Despacito which has had over 5 billion views making it the most viewed video was deleted for some time, but before they did the hackers changed the lead image showing Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee as hooded figurines pointing guns that were aimed at the camera. Other artist who had their videos edited are reportedly Post Malone, Taylor Swift, Chris Brown, Drake, Selena Gomez and other artist. The alleged hackers left their names underneath the videos they had hacked, and they also took to Twitter to tell people that they did it. One of the hackers who goes by the Twitter user name @ProsoxW3b according to The New York Daily News tweeted “It’s just for fun i just use script ‘youtube-change-title-video’ and I write ‘hacked’ don t judge me i love youtube”. The New York Daily News received a statement from a Vevo rep saying “Vevo can confirm that a number of videos in its catalogue were subject to a security breach today, which has now been contained”.
