Mary Elizabeth Winstead also confirmed the nude photos of her are authentic, "To those of you looking at photos I took with my husband years ago in the privacy of our home, hope you feel great about yourselves." She added, "Knowing those photos were deleted long ago, I can only imagine the creepy effort that went into this."

That's fucking hilarious. Hey, I got one for her: "To my parents accidently ever stumbling across my photos I took on a device that can be stolen, hacked, or used just to see what I'm doing in it's view sight, I hope you feel great about me, your fucking stupid daughter."


I have a genius idea for these celebs: stop taking naked photos of yourself with such devices.


"Doctor, it hurts when I slam my head into the wall."
"Then stop slamming your head in the wall."

Let me trump your genius: these photos existed before the leak. They became an issue only after someone illegally took them off Apple's service. The issue, therefore, is not the existence of the photos but that they now exist in a public format they were not intended for.

So the issue isn't that someone decided to be nude in a picture - OH NO! - but that someone else went out of their way to take someone else's property.

Its really a nonissue: someone did something malicious and that person was not the one who was photographed nude.

Better an unreality of unicorns and rainbows than the muck and mire of your criminal apologist blather.

Cloud accounts need to be protected just like any other account. What is the most amazing about this is that Apple didn't even have protection against brute force attacks (trying multiple password options until they get one that works). Most accounts lock you out after you try to log in more than four or five times. This would have been the commercially reasonable step Apple should have taken.

Though at the same time I don't have much sympathy for someone who gets hacked when they didn't enable two-factor authentication on something so serious. Just like Google accounts are pretty huge for many people (connecting Google+, E-mail, Youtube, etc) Apple iCloud accounts are pretty huge focus of people who use apple products. Both should have two factor authentication enabled so that even if someone is able to get your password, they can't get into your account without your cell phone or other device. Smart companies that use this also give you backup codes to print out so that they don't just let people say "I don't have my phone" and get around the whole system.

This is a good time to check if your important accounts have two factor authentication enabled. It can be a pain at times but it is worth it.

that's rather ridiculous. So these celebs were asking to have their privacy violated because they took intimate pictures of themselves?

That's like being asked to be robbed in the street because you are holding an expensive phone, You should not have had it out in broad daylight? Or settled for a cheap-ass model!

Or blaming a woman being being raped because she has a vagina, so it's her own fault!

We've gone from one extreme to the other. Blaming the victim, now ppl have no personal responsibility. I don't buy either philosophy.

Leaving aside the fact that lots of non-celebs do that as well, such stuff can be and has been stolen long before digital storage was the norm (four words: Pamela Anderson sex tape).

Personal responsibility?

A theft like this is essentially no different then someone cloning your debit or credit card after finding out your PIN and then emptying your account.

Is the victim responsible because they had money in the bank?

Like said above, celebs arent the only ones taking intimate pictures. They arent the only ones using cloud services. This kinda theft happens every day I'm sure. But it's only news now that the victims are celebs.

I'm not disputing its a crime and the criminals should be caught and punished. They stole someone else's property and distributed it which is also copyright infringement.

But celeb of all ppl know they are targets of things like this. Saying they should be able to take naked pics and put them on the Cloud, and expect 100% security is living in fantasy land.

They made a personal choice which put their privacy at risk. We all have to make choices in life and some are wiser than others. This is what we are supposed to teach children for Pete's sake much less adults.

Well there you go. If there was a high risk of getting kicked in the balls, I would wear protection, there isn't so I don't. Risk vs reward.

I guess celebrities shouldn't have bodyguards either? Because no one should physically threaten a celebrity. Oh, wait they DO have bodyguards!

In similar news, you remain exactly as far away from me as you always have. Sounds like a case of knowing what you'd get if you came any closer. wink

Okay, so let's just nip the stupidity in the bud while mankind still has a chance, shall we?

Attention celebrities (particularly the most vain and vacuous ones):
1) There's this thing called the internet.
2) Foolish (albeit entirely human) things that you do in private will probably find their way onto it.
3) The attention you receive from the public discovery of said things will probably be unwanted.
4) Learn from it. And feel free to use the circumstances of others as a pre-emptive lesson (eg. Hugh Grant 1995).
5) Again, there's this thing called the internet.

Job done.

Celebs obviously have no right to any privacy.

A view shared by some dickhead of an artist who's decided to exhibit lifesize copies of the shots of Jennifer Lawrence and Kate Upton nude in an LA gallery (along with those of some other victims, like Scarlett Johansson). Supposedly it's a "Screw you" to Google.

I hope he gets his butt sued off.

We've all photographed out nob one of twice.

I'm not quite sure if I've translated this correctly, so I'm keeping it under lock and key.

Is this a new form of cloud watching? But seriously, the "cloud" is a computer storage system in somebody else's house. Why on earth would anyone want to leave their personal stuff in a complete stranger's house?

And there's all that "sharing" going on. Although we do it here in a minor key, I wouldn't really want to pull a major chord.

You are getting a wee bit out of line, my friend.
If you don't know how to disagree without getting touchy...

Anyway, my point (which should have been clear) was that people are supposed to be intelligent and remember that the more purile sensibilities of their fellow man will be employed at the first opportunity.
It's NOT right. I've never said that it was (please show me where I did, Stefan).
But that is the way it is.
And any celebrity that doesn't know that leaves themselves open to that kind of exploitation--just as, I hasten to add, we common folk who often get exploited in other ways (bank records and identity theft and so on).
