Your celebrity worship is showing. Everyone deserves security in their personal information. We don’t have royalty in this country.

What are you talking about? I was responding to a poster who said that these girls released these pics on purpose. I said nothing about the criminal act of hacking these pics. So please, chill.

Security of personal information is only as good as the means used to capture it and secure it. People need to understand that when it comes to digitized information “security” is limited and imperfect. And they need to have respect for it.

30 years ago a Jennifer Lawrence could have taken nude pix of herself with a Polaroid camera, then either permanently destroyed them via burning (secure!) or secured them in a safe or safety deposit box (still subject to limitations in security).

The truth is that in the digital age we may deserve to have security, but the only way to really have it is to never commit things we want to keep “secure” to digital media.
