He got my password, looked at my pictures, and gave me a stronger password.
...And then he went and hacked and posted Hope Solo’s photos. That was worse punishment than Helen Thomas pics. Some of us are still permanently traumatized by that... beast.

Wait, so he didn’t break into their accounts? They gave him the passwords bc he phished them all? You’ve got to be kidding.
Social hacking is WAY easier than the real thing.
Let him hack that terrorist’s phone and he can cut a deal on his sentence.
You’re correct about the Hope Solo photos. That was a bit rough.
These guys used that and also answering their oh, to easy security questions to get in and change their passwords. Celebrities selected questions such as "What was your mother's maiden name?" and "What elementary school did you go to when you were eight years old?" which are dead easy to learn the answers to for any celebrity merely by reading their fanzine biographies. Had they been smart the answer to the first question would have been "Lobster Thermidor" and to the Second "San Quentin Prison." That way what the bad guys learned in the bio wouldn't have gotten them in.

Most of these systems ask common backup questions if you forget your password. Like the name of your pet or the first school that you attended. Information that isn’t hard to find about celebrities. So the hacker uses the answers to these questions to gain access to the accounts.
Innocent. But only if he has more pics
Did you see any requirement celebrities had to be bright?
Who is that?
She needs a lift, two lifts.
Perhaps, but I think she is NOT GUILTY. ;^)
I think I just earned an AA degree in gynecology. Sheesh.
I've got a couple of free hands.
I’m learning that the field of gynecology is not as glamorous as previously thought.
Huh? Did Hope Solo not look so good?
