If ever there was an example of why you should delete your internet history, this might just be it.
A Chicago news station was caught having bookmarked a porn site when demonstrating a student designed website.
WGNTV was caught with their pants down when using a smartphone to search for "expungement". They aimed to show how the web-based app Expunge.io, which was designed by a group of students could help people get minor offences and juvenile arrests struck from their records.
But in demonstrating the sites easy navigation using a smartphone, the first two letters of the search query 'expungement' instead brought up a shortcut to the interviewee's porn site of choice in the browsing history.
Lesson to be learned here: it's not just your mum who might catch you tapping more than your phone screen on the internet.
