Seriously? So you think it’s ok for government proxies to hack the phones of anyone who opposes their policies?

As if spyware couldn’t take surreptitious photos and videos, as if photos can’t be shopped.

But since it’s happening to women, the solutions is for them to not take selfies.

Did it occur to any of you dimbulb men that they can plant child porn on your phone?

****************

Pretty much proven via the events around Sharyl Attkisson, they’ll hack into your home or work computer and plant child porn.

That has been the goto method of shutting down problem people since early in the Obama admin.

you’re equating different things as if they are the same

they do plant things on peoples phones, if they want to target them

but they are not the same thing

on one hand you have someone actively being dumb and putting the material on their phone to be blackmailed with

especially given this thing occurs quite a bit with women in particular

on the other hand you have a person who has things deliberately planted on their phone to be framed or blackmailed

they are not the same things even though its possible to hack into either targets’ phones

they could have equally decided to put child porn on her phone and blackmail her or report her, or confidential govt documents on her phone

but she gives them the material, no need for that

its also quite different in two other major ways

first, while the average modern woman is obssessed with taking photos of herself in all manners of dress and undress, the average man is not self-obssessed with taking endless selfies of himself in risque or nude poses, so typically men aren’t going to be blackmailed in this fashion

second, neither the average woman or the average man does not have child porn, much less sexual pics of the woman they are with, on their phones, so this would have to be planted as opposed to releasing photos that were already there

and the consequences are nowhere near the same, risque private personal photos versus child porn, the woman isnt going to jail because her private boudoir photos are released

she made it easy for them, she never thought her phone could be hacked

why make it so easy? given how often womens that are high profile are attempted to be hacked, for any number of reasons.

people have older but high quality phones that don’t have service or internet enabled anymore, but they have a lot of memory, decent cameras and still work, and would be much safer for taking pics than a phone that was hackable via active service

Its not ok. It is not ok for someone to steal your purse while you are shopping. So do you leave it sitting on some counter while you try on outfits? Hopefully NO YOU DON’T. If you did that and I advised you not to do that again after it was stolen, would you all screechy at me?
