#AppleNews Sends Racist Notifications Instead of Updates to iPhone Users. #FastCompany, a monthly business magazine, was hijacked by hackers who sent a racist push alert through Apple News. For most of us, push notifications are a necessary evil, the cost of being joined at the hip to our mobile phones. But when that necessary evil turns, well, actually quite evil, it’s time to take a step back. On Tuesday night, Fast Company, a monthly business magazine, shut down its website after the site was commandeered by hackers who sent disgusting and racist notifications to iPhone users through the Apple News application, according to The Washington Post. Followers of Fast Company on Apple News were sent two notifications that both read, “N****RS TONGUE MY ANUS. THRAX WAS HERE.” As you would imagine, users were shocked and quickly shared the offensive updates on social media, wondering what the hell was going on. Shortly after the breach, Fast Company tweeted that it was “investigating the situation” and subsequently suspended the Apple News feed and shut down the site entirely.
