Over the past few days the news has been talking about nude photos celebrities had on their cloud (what is the cloud anyway? Does anyone really know?) that have been hacked into and published. Is this news? Yes, because Apple's cloud network has been hacked into and that is a security risk for millions of people who store information and pictures on there. Is it news because celebrities are having their nude photos sold? Maybe.
Here is my take on this:
If you don't want your pictures to get leaked, then don't put them on your computer, cloud drive, hard drive, USB stick or even leave them on the SD card in your phone or camera. Better yet....don't take them! If you don't take them, they can't get publicized. Easy Peasy! Celebrities already know they are targets for this kind of stuff, so why put it out there where it can get hacked into? Like Miley Cyrus and her twerking...just don't do it!
Now ladies, the female body is amazing is capable of amazing and beautiful things...such as child birth, but it is not meant to be shown off to the public. In this case they didn't mean for the public or anyone else's eyes to see these, but in today's world of technology, cyber hacking and identity theft, one should know not to put these kinds of things on their cloud.
Today we lack morality. We feel that sex is free to give to anyone and everyone. Showing off our bodies nude, or in provocative poses is not only okay is expected and seen as being proud of one's body. Let me tell you what, you can be proud of your body and keep your clothes on! You can be sexy and still be covered up. In fact ladies, the more left to the imagination, the better. I have even been told by guys that a girl who respects herself and keeps herself covered is a lot sexier than showing off your nude body.
Can you take sexy photos for your spouse? Absolutely, but perhaps keep private areas covered, especially if you are going to store them on your computer or heaven forbid your cloud! Personally I wouldn't want any naked photos of myself floating around my home, computer, phone or cyberspace, but hey that is just me. No photos, no opportunities for anyone to find them.
Here is the next issue, privacy should be respected and boundaries shouldn't be crossed. I know that there are those that feel celebrities have no right to privacy, but they would be wrong. Everyone has a right to privacy in their own private lives. They get to choose what parts of their lives they want to make public, not hackers who feel it is their own right to invade the privacy of others and post personal pictures for all to see or even to sell. This is stealing and you are selling illegal gained property that is not yours to sell. For whoever is going to end up buying these photos, you are buying stolen property, which in my opinion should be a felony (and I am pretty sure this is, but I'd have to look it up to be sure) and they should get the maximum time in prison. Not only did they steal property that didn't belong to them, they invaded the privacy of others and hacked into a corporations cloud. (I know sounds silly right, hacking into a cloud?)
Ask yourself the next time you decide you want to take nude photos, do you want anyone to potentially see them? If the answer is no, then don't do it! Simple. If you want to take them, keep them between you and your spouse, do it on a camera and delete them...:)
