the guy who bought the images to post onto 4chan is going to try and pass the buck up to the people he bought the images from, but they will have been a hundred times smarter than him and more or less won't exist, so every computer the guy ever touched will be hosed over by the law and the sentence will take into account the lack of cooperation (because the judge won't accept that the people who sold the images really exist), and the guys lack of remorse (because he did this in the first place). gonna be glorious.

actually there's a whole industry around it (tabloids).

the creepy part is there's hardly any laws against it. at least the trafficking part. as far as I know.

yeah this feels like taking it to the next level though and is way way more invasive. like with tabloids you can at least close the drat blinds and they have to follow SOME rules

(CNN) -- Massachusetts' highest court ruled Wednesday that it is not illegal to secretly photograph underneath a person's clothing -- a practice known as "upskirting" -- prompting one prosecutor to call for a revision of state law.

The high court ruled that the practice did not violate the law because the women who were photographed while riding Boston public transportation were not nude or partially nude.


so if you don't want up skirts, then go around nude on the bus.

i actually saw a naked homeless guy (i was gonna say bum but that would be confusing lol) on the T once. he was rambling about bush being a secret lizard

the worst part was that he kept leaning against the vertical handrails

e: it was bush not obama i guess since this was probably 2007ish

(CNN) -- A hacker's leak of nude photos of Jennifer Lawrence and other female celebrities is now a case for the FBI.

Nude photographs of Lawrence, who won an Academy Award last year for her role in "Silver Linings Playbook," were splashed on various sites Sunday. They appeared on 4chan, Reddit, Twitter and Tumblr, among others.

Kate Upton's lawyer confirmed photos of the model-actress were among those leaked, calling it "an outrageous violation" of her privacy. "We intend to pursue anyone disseminating or duplicating these illegally obtained images to the fullest extent possible," attorney Lawrence Shire said.


uh yeah good luck with that.

how is this any different from revenge porn, except that one guy at the top who committed unlawful access to a computer.
