FBI takes over investigation of nude celebrity photos leak

The FBI said it was "addressing" a massive data breach of various celebrities that resulted in the posting of their nude images online. The suspected leak organizer told supporters he was on the move, alluding to the possibility of more images.

Actresses Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upton, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, and Kristin Dunst are reportedly among the dozens of Hollywood celebrities whose nude or semi-nude photos materialized Sunday on the 4chan online forum.
"The authorities have been contacted and will prosecute anyone who posts the stolen photos of Jennifer Lawrence."

The FBI said it was "aware of the allegations concerning computer intrusions and the unlawful release of material involving high profile individuals, and is addressing the matter."
The FBI has previously investigated leaks of nude celebrity images, including those of actress Scarlett Johansson.

A vulnerability in Apple iCloud may have allowed a hacker to access photos in protected celebrity accounts. Apple Inc. spokeswoman Natalie Kerris said the company was investigating whether any iCloud accounts had been violated.

"We take user privacy very seriously and are actively investigating this report," she said.

Meanwhile, the person who claims to have led the photo hack-and-dump operation said he had to move to a new location to avoid authorities. While the person remained anonymous, other 4chan posters called him "original guy."

"Guys, just to let you know I didn't do this by myself," he wrote. "There are several other people who were in on it and I needed to count on to make this happened (sic).

So these bored celebrities took nude selfies and were dumb enough to post them on the cloud.
Now the people's tax money is going to investigate their (celebrities) stupidity. Lol, gotta love democracy.

PS: The Internets is calling this event in our history: "the fappening" :rofl: :rofl:

Conspiracies theories about this include Samsung involvement to hit Apple hard as Sep 9 is the new iPhone event. Showing iCloud as vulnerable would be a very bad PR nightmare for Apple.

Others include that these leaks were by insiders as many of the celebs aren't really sharp when it comes to tech and give their phones and tablets to their assistants for backups/maintenance and upgrades.

I think Samsung is overestimating the people.
Even if you sell shit by calling it iShit, people will worship it.

I doubt it. Some of the pics depicted orgies, stars having sex and close ups of vjs etc. So unless they want to be a pornstar or hooker (both are same anyway), I doubt they would release these pics.

People are releasing sex tapes these days for popularity in Hollywood, it comes no surprise if these are intentional leaks.

Dude it was a mass leak. Unless all there super successful Hollywood actresses who didn't need publicity anyway colluded together to orchestrate this elaborate scheme there is no way this was anything other than a very scary breach of security.

There are successful actresses and then there are lesser known actresses.

Anyway I have no idea about the motives of releasing the pics by the hacker.

Someone was trying to sell them on 4chan. It is from there they got leaked. Look for the original thread there.

Well some of the actresses were never been nude like jlaw who with the oscar in hand certainly don't need this kind of infamy where her "facial" pics are on display. That's very embarrassing for them.
On the other hand how dumb these actresses are who takes these explicit graphic pics and uploads in the cloud.
