If I leave my house unlocked, that doesn't mean it's okay to rob me.
If I leave my car unlocked, that doesn't mean it's okay to steal my stereo.
If I drop my wallet, that doesn't mean it's okay to steal my cash and credit cards.
If someone is looking fine, that doesn't give me permission to rape them (not that I would entertain such an idea anyway).
And if I take nudes and save them to private cloud storage, that doesn't give someone else permission to hack into that account, steal them, and disseminate them.
These aren't complicated concepts. They should be uncontroversial. Coulda, woulda, shoulda may be worthwhile in terms of solidifying one's survival skills because assholes abound, but that's a separate discussion that doesn't change the morality of the acts in question.
And for the record, if I know ahead of time that certain pictures were stolen, then no, I wouldn't look at them. Consent is very important to me, and knowingly looking at someone's stolen private moments is a violation, and I won't be a party to that if I can help it.
And this is why society makes laws. Not everyone plays by the rules, or at least not my rules.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
