viewing stolen nude photos

Yep. As i said earlier in the thread, unfortunately there still exists this idea that women are walking temptations and men are just gonna do what men are gonna do. So when a sex crime is commited against them, the conversation becomes about how stupid she was and "what was she thinking" rather than "wow, who the hell was the dirt ball that did this?" When you hear about someone's house getting broken into and robbed, the conversation never turns to "OMG, they should have had an alarm system", "don't they have better locks?", "well that's what you get for having windows on the first floor." It's only when it's women and involves sex.

I know what you mean and I understand it all... and I don't personally go out of my way to chase this sort of material...
However, one must be a realist.
- There is no way to police the internet.
- There is demand for naughty pics - not just pics of women, mind you.
- There will always be someone with time on their hands to carry out these hacks which carry little or no threat of punishment, while leading to a grand reward.

While we'd like to keep make two last points illegal, the first point counters our practical ability to do it.
Making it immoral is nothing more than supposing that each individual will police him/herself... realistically, that may work for a part of the population. but will never work for a significant part of the people on the internet.


- We've all heard stories of this kind. Celebrities should be painfully aware of it through their celebrity friends. That they continue to put such content out there, while not taking due care with their access credentials, is their own fault... or intent, as some "leaks" are actually intentional (but we cannot tell, so it doesn't matter for this discussion)

I'm not saying "don't do it". I'm saying, if you never want your private pics or videos or whatever on public display, be careful. If you are a celebrity, be extra careful.
I'm a nobody, in comparison.... still, when I shared something a bit more concerning, I put it in a password protected RAR file, 128 bit encryption - unbeatable! And hosted it on my personal Raspberry Pi... and I keep it accessible only through SSH or SCP... The password was passed through a guessing game. Was I too careful? perhaps... it was a sort of test also to teach the other party the level of security that can be applied to such content...
Of course, once it reaches the other side, it is out of my control. Only trust applies.
Also, such photos/videos are taken with the phone in offline mode, then the content is moved out of the folders that get cloud stored automatically, before the phone is connected back to the internet.... not sure that's something you can do on an iPhone, but it most certainly is something that can be done with an Android.


- Should people have these concerns in an ideal world? NO! But they do need to have them in the real world.
