iTunes Store Russia is Displaying Pornographic Content [NSFW]

It appears that the iTunes Store Russia is displaying the official .xxx directory to users which features giant ads for escorts and pornographic content.

Twitter was abuzz with reports and screenshots of the unexpected sight. It appears as though someone who worked on iTunes used xxx.xxx or a similar URL as a temporary link, and since that url actually exists now, users are being directed to the site.

This is quite embarrassing for Apple, a company that likes to keep it as PG as possible.
