iCloud leaks/Celeb pic leaks Warning in OP

LiveIsLife

Whatever about getting to see a whole load of celebrities naked, its fairly worrying that there's been such a large data breach. Goes to show that nothings safe on the internet, even private pictures that had been thought deleted

OK, the original thread was closed due to the amount of links posted. As per the charter, links to pornographic images are not allowed. Apologies for not putting a closing post at the end

It's a little hard to take her "They're fake" seriously when the others all appear to be real... I'm sure some neck-beard will be along shortly to analyze the pixelation of the image and "verify" it's authenticity :rolleyes:

Am I right in guessing this is going to boil down to people not knowing about Apples backup features and leaving default passwords set on their accounts? i.e. a social media version of the voicemail "hacking"...

Neckbeard here!

Her pics are real. There is a comparison image doing the rounds. I wont link here for obvious reasons but there is a colored robe in the background that also appears in one of her self published twitter pics. Color of walls the same and frame of door the same.

I'm sure Apple are sufficiently protected by their user agreements etc. to be safe from legal action...

That said, a hundred pissed off A listers can probably do a hell of a lot of damage to a brand if they choose to.

If it is apple's icloud watch the share price drop like a stone. It may not be. As one fella pointed out a lot of the pics are taken with android phones. Though the pics may have been stored on another's phone and an apple one(boyfriend maybe). Personally I'd be looking at a phone company. Apparently there are more to come, so whoever the "hacker" was he had some level of access to whatever database he attacked.

It's one reason I back up my stuff to local drives and do DVD backups of my important stuff.

Though call me old fashioned/paranoid, one real easy way of not getting your private pics online is maybe stop taking nekkid pics of yourself and sending them to other people?

I love how reddit has called this The Fappening.

You can be damned sure that a lot of celebs and plebs are logged on to icloud right now deleting lots of content, possibly including their accounts. Big brand damage all right.

Would you recommend saving to physical drives that when stolen can never be recovered?

You can encrypt a drive but your point is valid. The info is gone.
I suppose the user has to weigh up the need to be able to recover the info in the event it is lost versus losing a level of control over their data. In general, just because a company has a big name, that doesn't mean I have faith in them. Still angry over vista.....

Looks almost certainly to be icloud with a brute force attack and a vulnerability in find my iPhone. This won't have any effect on the share price. Might make their iPhone 6/ios8 reveal a little awkward with their new partnership with credit card companies.

I'm holding out hope for some Oprah Winfrey pics.

Me too, it's the only sensible way to do it.

I have to say, I've no more interest in her pics than those of any other pretty girl as I'd no idea who she was until this happened. Actually had to google her to see who she was and all I'd have seen her in was a bit part as "generic pretty girl" in The First Time.

Showing my age but it'd be the Kirsten Dunst ones that would float my boat... but the manner in which these have been released is pretty creepy. Maybe there'll be a few of them that'll do Playboy shoots out of a "**** it, may as well cash in on it" reaction

Snapchat was my instant thought of a source for these. Call me old fashioned but while I've an interest in photography and have taken similar photos in the past, I'd never have stored them unencrypted, in a cloud location or even failed to wipe the SD card properly...

The only way to avoid pics like these getting in to the public domain is not to take them in the first place.

Nonsense, I have an even better way of protecting your pictures from getting out. Just get really fat and ugly. I have hundreds of nudie pics online and no one goes next nor near them.

Until details are released there's no point in people blaming iCloud. They could be from Dropbox, google drive etc too. I'll still bet they're from multiple sources and it's plain old password hacks.

True, though I'd imagine at least some of these kinda pics were meant for lovers and sent to their phones, so they're gonna have to delete such material from both their own and partners phones and laptops, pads, desktops. Chances are all their devices are backing up to the cloud.

Have you check out the fetish sites , the ones of you with baby oil and feathers are real earners and what you did with the jalapeno poppers, was amazing

I'm annoyed at myself for laughing at that.

Can't believe there is actually a naked photo/s/ videos of one or both of the Olsen Twins out there some where

That was a picture of a chicken casserole, not a picture of me you bastard.

Kim Kardasian has released a statement saying that pictures released showing her wearing clothes are clearly fake and not her.

anncoates

You must be out of your mind to store those things online. Especially well known people.

Macavity.

Hoping some nudes of Sasha Grey will leak, unlikely but a man can dream.

Ponster

An Apple iCloud hack doesn't explain the pics taken by Android devices (you can see S4s in some of them) and I read that ICloud doesn't upload videos so perhaps this was a different method of hacking.

Certainly if ICloud was open in this way then someone could be doing a lot more damage then posting celeb pics.

Earlier today I saw 4chan wanted to start a #leakforJLaw where girls would put up pictures of themselves. I didnt think it would work but it turns out it did.

She is also reported to have said, that any pictures not taken with a wide angled lense(panaoramic shot) to fit her ass in. Should also be treated as fakes.

Jesus. They are.

Some gobshíte called "Laura Mendez ‏@ISTANDWITHJLAW" set up a Twitter for the sole purpose of this (at least thats what it looks like).

Still though. Crackin' tits.
