Referring to the iCloud celebrity nudes leak that happened today. Kinda waiting for a more legitimate site to report on it, don't want to link to the sources of the "fappening"...

are you going to make me search the internet for "icloud celebrity nudes"

just seems like garbage reporting by some garbage websites based on the claims of somebody on 4chan, including multiple spox comments from the people named that the photos are faked
― Spirit of Match Game '76 (silby), Monday, 1 September 2014 03:22 (nine years ago) link
The pictures allegedly were retrieved due to an Apple iCloud leak that allowed celebrities’ phones to be hacked, and were posted on 4chan in an attempt to earn bitcoins.

Would love to say I resisted the urge to click a few when I first saw them posted, but I did not. Feel bad about it now though, sorry JLaw and Kate Upton.

ill look at some celebrity boobs if theyre out there, curious abt celebrities, boobs
― lag∞n, Monday, 1 September 2014 18:05 (nine years ago) link
these women did not consent to have the general public see them naked. this whole thing is unbelievably gross and it's been really demoralizing to see men who are ostensibly feminist allies treat this so lightly.
― compassionate sports, electronic father (reddening), Monday, 1 September 2014 18:17 (nine years ago) link
I agree that it's a gross invasion of privacy, but at the same time this shit happens all the time and the only reason there seems to be such a swell of outrage is just that it was a bunch of celebrities at once. I mean I don't think I've ever seen a single thinkpiece devoted to leaked celebrity nudes before and it happens all the fucking time, so I'm a little taken aback.
― 'arry Goldman (Hurting 2), Monday, 1 September 2014 18:23 (nine years ago) link
Also celebrities who complain about paparazzi harassing them usually get laughed down, and that's been going on for decades.

really unbelievably gross
― lag∞n, Monday, 1 September 2014 18:36 (nine years ago) link
like you cant believe it
the only thing that shocks me about this little episode is that whoever possessed these photos didn't make bank out of it
although maybe all of this is part of a longer game being played

saw some thing abt people getting bitcoin donations for posting the noods to 4chan, all the best internet stuff in one place
― lag∞n, Monday, 1 September 2014 22:06 (nine years ago) link
this is unfortunate for the people involved obviously but I'm surprised that the fbi is 'investigating'. will they do that if this happens to a non famous person? I suppose you could say this negatively impacts these people's careers but...does it, these days? I'm not so sure.
― akm, Tuesday, 2 September 2014 20:32 (nine years ago) link
also surprised this isn't just a huge promotion for Sex Tape
― akm, Tuesday, 2 September 2014 20:41 (nine years ago) link
The "revenge porn" phenomenon, which does affect non-famous people, is an even more disturbing issue. IDK whether the FBI gets involved or not but there have been lawsuits and legislative attempts to deal with it.

fbi prob mostly concerned with "hacking" tbh

Am I crazy if I just stop updating apps too now? I feel like it's just showing signs of getting annoyingly sluggish and I'd rather not risk anything that could make it worse until I finally decide to get a new handset.
― Alba, Wednesday, 17 September 2014 19:46 (nine years ago) link
avoiding app updates probably is a bit paranoid, you'll get better stability improvements by deleting stuff if you're below like a gig of free storage on your phone

yeah, being really low on space seems to still be performance death on iOS/OS X
― ⌘-B (mh), Wednesday, 17 September 2014 19:59 (nine years ago) link
I've got a 64GB one and have 17GB free. It's not really slow, but it's not as fast as it was, and I can only assume that apps making greater demands of it are the reason. If there's some other trick, do let me know.
― Alba, Wednesday, 17 September 2014 20:05 (nine years ago) link
fwiw I didn't intend to, but I ended up completely wiping when installing iOS 8 and then restoring my settings from a backup and it seemed to make a reasonable difference in performance
then again, who knows
― ⌘-B (mh), Wednesday, 17 September 2014 20:09 (nine years ago) link
this happened to me too, when I installed iOS 7. i get the feeling their upgrade procedure is less efficient than restoring from backup.
― Nhex, Wednesday, 17 September 2014 20:57 (nine years ago) link
iOS 8 quite underwhelming so far

double-tap menu has recent contacts across the top, you can send audio messages, siri has integrated shazam, you can have family members share app purchases, it will eventually ask you if you want to let diff apps do shit in the background (it detects lots of background activity and sends you to settings if you want)battery usage by app is also available, letting you know what's draining things

1password integrated into safari is a very welcome addition (also i think it's free for ios now?)
― diamonddave85 (diamonddave85), Wednesday, 17 September 2014 21:50 (nine years ago) link
you can send audio messages
My dad had a pager in the 80s that looked like the talkee part of a walkee-talkee. His customers could call the number and say their message. In a few moments, that thing would go off and you'd hear this garbled CB voice come shredding out of it.
No, it's great that we've gone back to those halcyon days.
