Lawrence gets hacked. Someone gets photos she previously deleted, and it’s her fault.

Had someone obtained her banking information, her home address and phone number, her SSN, then obviously you’d have no problem with Lawrence’s outrage, right?

Then it would be an internet crime of some sort, yes. Theft, violation of privacy, etc.

But it wouldn't be armed robbery or home invasion, anymore than swiping her photos is a sex crime.

I think people are objecting to the stupidity of storing graphic photos in "the cloud," or the naivete, at least.

Nothing is safe out there. Someone of her media and publicity savvy should know that.

I never said it was all her fault. Her behavior, however, made this possible. What she did - no matter how much she has a right to do it - was stupid and risky.

“Had someone obtained her banking information, her home address and phone number, her SSN, then obviously you’d have no problem with Lawrence’s outrage, right?”

False. I think she has every right to be outraged because someone violated the law and her privacy. She is still responsible for the photos she took, however.
