Let me guess, VICE fell for it simply because it was allegedly about something sexual/a naughty body part? What word is blanked there, "dick"? I'm not sure how someone could get their dick locked in a cage by a hacker, but VICE seems like a pretty silly, gullible bunch of pen-apes ... I really don't want to watch this. What happened to reading and writing? Everything's a video now.

I'm going to guess it's some kind of fetish thing - a chastity belt with an electronic lock, and he told them a hacker changed the password.

That story is terrific bait. It sounds just insane enough to be real. If I were the journalist that fell for it, I wouldn't even be mad.
