    It's almost as if Reddit isn't some sort of homogeneous hive-mind.. what with millions upon millions of users.

    Also, a bit of a difference between the NSA intercepting billions of emails and some plonker hacking a site for a few nudey photos

    Well supposedly the people who work in the NSA aren't much better

    According to whistleblower Edward Snowden, young NSA employees occasionally get hold of nude photos while searching through personal data and, if the person is attractive, the photos get passed around the office.

    This whole scadal is made worse by the people who look at these photos and videos. I personally haven't looked at anything. I just don't think it's right.

    If only this was 20 years ago i could have made a fortune selling the tapes .

    The original Pamela Anderson tape earned me enough to enjoy a great summer of spending when it was released .

    Damn Internet has spoiled things

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    True. Good point.
    But lets all be honest. Who here hasn't sent a nude picture? :P
    I haven't, and the world is a better place for that. :o

    Best I can tell, what's happening here is that people don't realise that they have "cloud photo backup" turned on, so all their photos are being backed up to iCloud pretty much as soon as they take them. . Or they know it's on but don't appreciate the consequences. Google has a similar facility on their Android OS too, and I have one of those, but I actually read the message, said "heck, no", and then went in to Settings and double-checked that it was indeed off.

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    People taking pictures of themselves naked is a fairly common thing and people are entitled to a degree of privacy, even famous people. If a famous person is sending naked pictures of themselves to someone, that's their business and no one else's. I don't think they really deserve to be humiliated over it, especially since that seems to be the primary goal of this kind of crap. Someone being famous doesn't really give any right to some asshole on 4chan or Reddit or whatever to violate their privacy.

    I'm glad the guy has been identified. Too many people think they're safe behind a computer screen, not to mention the fact that they have way too much time on their hands to go around trying to catch celebrities out. Get a life.

    Where would one find videos of Jessica Findlay or Jennifer Lawrence, I'd just like to make sure I know where I need to avoid.

    Too many people think they're safe behind a computer screen

    And too many people think it's safe to photograph or record themselves in situations that they want to keep private and then upload those 'private' moments to a cloud service that can be compromised at any time.

    It's idiots all the way down

    The domain "thefappening.com" has yet to be bought.

    I guess the Brown bit is a nickname, not part of a double barreled surname.

    I don't really think that the people who have been exploited in this are in any way to blame. People wanting to take pictures of their own body for their own possession or to share with a boy/girlfriend as part of an intimate relationship is their business and frankly it's pretty normal, and yet this idea that someone might take a naked picture of themselves and the impulse to shame those people is what seems to be fueling this whole "scandal".

    The real scandal is that some person saw fit to hack into people's private property and take pictures that don't belong to them with the intention of spreading them all over the internet without the consent of the individuals involved.

    There's some real sickos on 4chan and reddit. One of the first pics that went on Twitter for leakforjlaw was of a good looking girl naked on a bed. Apparently the photo is of a girl who was spiked at a party and is dead in the photo. Sick bastards.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,315 ✭✭✭Soft Falling Rain


    This kind of thing disturbs me so much, it makes you realise that we're all at the mercy of those capable, most of us are just fortunate enough not to be worth anything on the "market".

    People on 4chan aren't usually the nicest bunch but I doubt that's true, at least I hope it's not.

    Well, I no longer need to squint watching X Men: Days of Future Past.

    I can fully close my eyes. :pac:

    There are some z-list celebs currently on dancing with the stars who are probably raging they weren't included in this leak :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,318 ✭✭✭✭Menas


    And so it starts again. More pics getting released. Cat Deeley, I have actually heard of her.

    Reeks of nonsense. A "collector" in the "circle" would have leaked long, long before now.

    How on earth would (genuine) Selena Gomez nudes be on the deep web, but not end up on the surface web? Probably fakes.

    Depends. There's definitely a number of people involved. Sure there's still leaks coming through.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,048 ✭✭✭Da Shins Kelly

    If he has actually been identified, I doubt he'll get away with it. Pretty sure that kind of invasion of privacy is a crime. The people involved did not consent to that person taking possession of and publishing pictures of them. The guy who did it to Scarlett Johansson ended up getting a pretty big sentence.

    I remember seeing an interview with the guy who created 4chan and he said he frequently hands over the IP addresses of people who are using the site to commit crimes. 4chan is really full of the weirdest people.

    If this guy managed to get nude pics of some of the most famous celebrities in the world I highly doubt he'd leave his traceable information accessible to 4chan.

    They will not easily get him. He said he was masking proxies etc....
    The fella that was rumoured to be responsible was just being a dick and trying to make a few dollars. Deffo not him.

    On a seperate note, that 4chan seems like a mess....hard to see any structure at all in there....lots of random sh1t.
