If you are a super famous celebrity I think you have to expect a certain loss of privacy. That doesn't make it right to hack photos, but the level of anger and outrage coming from some people over this is a little weird.
- Just look at the front page of TMZ or Daily Mail everyday, it's the same thingreanimate
- With few exceptions those pics on TMZ etc are taken in public, where privacy can't be expected.i_monk
- Again: just because something is common doesn't make it right.nb
- And again: the "you're a celeb, deal with it" argument is dehumanizing.nb
- Let's put it this way, our society creates and encourages this kind of culture.reanimate
- Yes, society encourages it and that is wrong. Still, nobody is forcing you to look at the pics. You choose to look or not to look.nb

^You guys wouldn't be embarrassed if someone shared photos of, say the one of stretching the anus, for the whole world to see? Your former classmates, coworkers, friends, etc?

It is a terrible invasion of privacy but think of all the actresses you do nude scenes.
It shouldn't be such a big deal.
- They agree to the nude scene. It's contractual, usually to very specific details. (e.g., what exactly will be seen, and what won't be.)nb
- won't be.) Actors doing nude scenes are often willing to for artistic reasons, or personal ones, or financial ones.nb
- Bottom line is: it's different because they have a choice.nb
- share your info? its not big deal2002

lol, they say it's not a big deal showing the world intimate pics, yet they have anonymous accounts.

There's a lot of "she shouldn't have worn a short skirt" going on here.
How would you feel if your girlfriend's or wife's ex posted her old nudes to the internet and made sure you and everyone she knows knew where to find them? What if it were your daughter?
This isn't about an actor posing naked in the street or in a nude scene, it's about participating in a criminal violation of privacy. I don't agree that it's a sex crime (more a matter of receiving stolen property) because the pics could have been of anything, but the privacy aspect is inescapable.

some of the photos were taken when they were underaged
if you have one of the photos in your dropbox, gmail, google drive, icloud, yahoo, onedrive etc, it gets scanned and reported

Agreed imonk. But I do think that our culture, with its obsession with celebrities and appearances, pushes people right up to the line and then everyone acts shocked when people jump over it.
And it will only get worse. Just imagine what invasions of privacy will be possible 20 years from now.
