An art project linking the cities of Dublin and New York via a live video portal has been temporarily shut after less than a week due to "inappropriate behaviour".
The Portal offered a continuous live stream that was displayed on a circular screen in both cities.
The project was halted because some visitors displayed bad language, an OnlyFans model flashed body parts, and footage of the 9/11 terrorist attacks were transmitted to New York viewers.
The Portals project used Video Window software to power the always-on video connections. Video Window told TechCrunch website it is working on a machine learning component to block inappropriate behaviour.
