An electronic traffic sign operated by the Chicago Department of Transportation in the Loop was reportedly hacked, displaying an unauthorized and explicit political message instead of standard roadway alerts, according to CBS News.
The digital sign, normally used to share traffic updates and safety notices, was seen flashing a message targeting former President Donald Trump and referencing ICE. Photos and video of the sign quickly spread online, sparking debate and criticism across social media platforms.
