Am I the only one who's a little bit creeped out by this whole thing? Isn't there enough pron on the internet made by women who actually want to make pron? Do we really need to see naked pictures of women who never intended that those pictures be public?

IF YOU SPANK TO JENNIFER LAWRENCE NOODZ THEN YOU ARE ALIGNING WITH TEH TERRORISTS

I'm with you. Breaking into someone's computer storage and stealing private data is like breaking into their house and stealing pictures from their photo album. Wrong even if they leave the door unlocked.

I'm kind of with you but still want to keep distance from the #yesallwomyn crowd acting like this has something to do with rape culture or other stupidness. This has happened with men, and nobody cared much.

The arguments minimizing the accountability of the selfie-ers seem really thin. I get that modern culture changes very quickly, and maybe this is just something that everybody feels this is a right they have now. But given the realities of data security, if you're famous, you should refrain. The rules of privacy are different for people who decide they want to be famous. Want to be a US politician? Don't have skeletons in your closet. Want to be a Hollywood starlet? Stop storing nudes.

Wonder what else was in their account? Did the thief only copy the nude pix files?

Basically you're saying stop storing anything on-line.

Certainly do NOT store nudes, homemade porn, etc. ANYWHERE online. Even if you're NOT famous.

Not at all. I have all sorts of stuff online. I bank online, and my accounts are FDIC insured so I can be confident in my safety. I have a large number of photos online as well. Being a non-famous person, this is not a concern for me.

I would take online banking security much, much more seriously if I were on a Forbes list and knew people would put the time in to get what I got. Similarly, I wouldn't keep compromising photos in the cloud.

If you are famous, you have different rules. Nobody seems to argue: "Jennifer Lawrence shouldn't have to have a bodyguard. Why don't we just teach stalkers to STOP stalking." Because that would be idiotic. Hot young actresses with gigantic profiles need bodyguards, because people crazy. Same thing with newds in the cloud. No.

Two mistakes.

1. Taking the pics. If it exists it will eventually get out there.

2. Having a shit password. Yes Apple fucked up by allowing multiple attempts, but if your password was better they couldn't have cracked it.

something serious has gone wrong when guys start discussing nudes instead of posting them.

I must be really fucked up, desensitized and jaded, because it takes a lot more than some celebrity chick's poorly composed, candid nudie pics to get me off, these days. Maybe if Jennifer Lawrence had anime-style octopus tentacles choking her and playing with her boobs and violating every orifice on her body I could get into it more... But when I saw the leaked pics, I just said "Meh." and hit-up pornhub.com.

I'm having a real hard time seeing how this is any different from the "she was asking for it" defense

That's because if you aren't exercising a modicum of common sense to protect yourself, the fact is you ARE asking for it.

Jesus. I elaborated at some length, but I guess I'll try one more time:

Bodyguards for VIPs exist for a reason. The VIP is not asking to be abducted/raped/killed/tickled, they just have a very high profile that makes them a target. They need to take security more seriously than normal people. That doesn't mean they're asking for it.

Same with privacy. Millions of people are not going to see a hacked leaked photo of a Starbucks barista. A celebrity has to worry about this more than a Starbucks barista, because they are a bigger target. That doesn't mean the celebrity is asking for it. The world fucks with people whether they ask for it or not, so plan accordingly.

I looked at 'em, there's nothing particularly exciting - gee, Jennifer Lawrence has a banging body, who knew? - and I almost feel bad.

Yes, data security is kind of a joke and different standards for celebs, etc..

At the same time, all the dudes I know blaming the actresses are either asking their SOs to send them tit pics or are overjoyed when they get them unsolicited. I don't know anyone who refuses naked pics.

Sooth.

Storing private photos in cloud... one should have strong belief in honesty of others :)

Um, that's exactly the argument of the shrieking sisterhood: She and other women shouldn't have to have any sort of defences at all, because pigs shouldn't be pigs, assholes shouldn't be assholes, and bad people should start acting like not bad people.

Setting aside that millions of people do see leaked photos of Starbucks baristas -- or else revenge porn websites wouldn't be a thing.

In any other context, when there's an online security breach that compromises personal data, the onus is placed on (a) the hackers and (b) possibly the company that allowed the breach to occur. It's only when it's CELEBRITY NOODZ that people start to talk about "personal responsibility."

Funny how everyone saying this is like a sex crime, etc weren't yelling and screaming when this happened to Rhianna, Christina A., Paris Hilton, Kim K. and all the other chicks this had happen. Different standard when it is someone like Jennifer Lawrence? It sounds like bullshit to me.

like bud charniga's . . . john stewart is right on it
