I have to admit i typically abhor and stay away from this type of scandal. Typically. Kate Upton being involved makes it painfully tempting.

People were actually stupid enough to believe that.

...and a lot of people do things that I would never, ever do - such as bank and billpay online. NFW.

The “cloud” is as secured as a client-side server.

I can’t do the dark. My tail is ugly, but I don’t want to slip and break it.

I would write “LOL”, but that has nearly happened once or twice, and I’ve lost my humor about it.

How did they get the images?

This is the million-dollar question, and no one has a conclusive answer to it yet.

Well, people today are sex-obsessed and stupid and one bunch of these bananas found another bunch and viola!

...the images seem to have come from a loosely affiliated network of undeniably creepy dudes.

Yes, but they originated with some slutty women.

Those of us who work in IT and warned of potential “cloud” issues are smirking.

I am not (snicker!) smirking at (bahahahaha) all (snoooork!). I will say that whoever re-branded "outsourcing" as The Cloud was a genius.

I posted my nude photos and no hits.

Next time I’ll air brush and then use photoshop for enhancements.

Last thing you’d want is a team of doctors and nurses staring at it.

In my opinion what we are observing here is evidence of the “Casting Couch” that has been traditionally used by producers to extract favors from young actresses for a promise of a job for 100 years. The photos are made to use as a black mail device to keep the girl enslaved and in line. Remember the Jack Woltz character in “The Godfather” who complained that Johnny Fontaine ruined the best piece of ass he ever had with his Guinea charm. I suspect that these pics originated in the camera phone of a movie producer. More shoes will drop, I suspect.
