Oh yes! this must have been the concerted effort of 60 celebrities for publicity. That doesn't sound implausible at all.

Well, Scarlett's exposer got 10 years, so whoever did this I imagine is gonna get a pretty high multiple of that, especially if he did hack iCloud.

Listen to me very carefully. Even the act of thinking "Who thought that's what she looks like under the hood with that baby face of hers?" is inappropriate. Posting such a thought is uncalled for, no matter what site you posted it on. I hope you die a virgin.

I completely agree. But, speaking as a completely nobody that has had this exact same thing happen, this isn't just a celeb problem. People feel entitled to women's bodies in general, but being a public figure definitely worsens it tenfold.

Translation: "I cry from loneliness after I masturbate."

"Leave the fuck, call the authorities"

I've had training in identifying and working with people who have been in abusive relationships (it's required for all people who work in mental health.) I have never once heard that statistic. In fact, a person is better off trying to get out of a relationship as soon as possible rather than to keep going back. …

Not to mention how domestic violence is largely ignored by local officials, allowing abusers to stay out of jail (or be released quickly) so they can do more damage to their victims. I'm not sure if this guy had a history of arrests related to violence (domestic or not), but there are so many cases of murdered women…

no the safer option is to leave the fuck, call authorities and have them deal with him.

I will post this on every article about domestic violence from here until the end of time. If you are experiencing abuse, it is not your fault. If someone you care about is being abused, you cannot fix it for them, but you can be a support and decrease the isolation they are experiencing. From loveisrespect.org:

Anyone who has looked at the pictures, to me, are just as vile has the hacker. Every time someone looks at these women's private photos they are violating their privacy all over again and they should feel fucking horrible.

And for money. According to people who've been to the reddit sub-boards where the photos are, even now, still coming, he or they have been getting money from people on the boards. And there's the TMZ money. And there's the possibility of blackmail.

re: no one caring about my lady boner. I know that purposefully misapprehending a point and doing tired word play on a pithy and correct criticism counts for wit in some circles -but it is incredibly bush league. Be better.

The thing is that this relates to the larger issue of celebrity and how so many people feel entitled to photograph celebs anywhere. To stalk them. To try and invade their personal moments with family, children, even in the bathroom!

Mine are floating around somewhere. I looked damn good, all perky and stretchmark-free. I give exactly zero fucks if they ever surface. This was right when webcams were starting to be a thing-back in the good ol ' days, the guy who has them is still one of my good friends, and I really have reached some peace about…

The hacker isn't doing it for mankind. He is doing it because he enjoys invading privacy and attempting to embarrass people. Specifically women. It it was about n00dz, he would fap to them by himself. Try again.

There was one. The neckbeards cropped him out so only the woman who's privacy has been invaded could be seen.

I'm going to try to forget that the link to the pictures was ever posted in this article. Seriously. SERIOUSLY?!

I got my first iPhone this summer... and I also got a new boyfriend this summer.... I sent a lot of racy pics.

For the people that actually do shame them: all pictures that you randomly take with your phone get uploaded to iCloud (and it's the same for other phone services and that type of file storage). You have to specifically go onto the site to delete them most of the time. And truthfully, who doesn't take completely…
