No its not your fault, that's your HOUSE. Now see this, your locked house is likened to an encrypted offline pc or usb flash drive, while the Internet today is likened to an international park with free access to anyone. Now imagine, you took that private usb flash drive out of your house, place it in the middle of the park, unsecured (thought its secure), some random fellow swung by, picked it up and access it on his own computer. Who the f is ultimately to blame? The hypothetical grasses in the park is it, whom you blindly trusted with your information.
Please employ some basic reading and comprehension skills la. We are not saying its entirely her fault. Sure I blame the "hackers", script kiddies or whatever that illegally gained access to her photos. But ultimately it was HER decision to store such nudes on the cloud. But instead of her and others affected accepting at least 51% of the blame, they are mouthing off saying its the Internet's fault... Geezz... Hope you now understand.
Possibly, if she had such intentions in the future. With our current "celebs", one never knows how far they are willing to go for more publicity.

oh i didn't know my post was targeted at you. on what basis are you saying she's putting the whole blame on the internet? and just what proof you seek actually of whether these victims are willing take some part of the blame? in fact how can you be so certain that this people have not realized of their actions and the consequences that surfaces. in the end everything turns out as a lesson learnt way too hard for the victims and i'm sure the tragedy has impacted their life more than one could possibly want. is that not good enough for you all-so-knowing chaps?
the problem is why are people so hell-bent on reinforcing the "victim-blaming" notion here? on this thread alone you can see that majority talks about how the celebrities are at fault and hardly a person has anything to say about the "hackers", which is the real criminal here.
Locate the bolded part above. Also she is suing Google.
"Jennifer Lawrence has recently joined Cara Delevingne in a lawsuit against Google. The "Hunger Games" actress has had enough when her account was hacked for a
second time recently." You would think she or others learnt from her or other's in the past's first time.
Sos. Know what, suing Google is not enough, they should also sue Apple for making her iPhone which snapped the pics and uploaded, their ISP for allowing sensitive photos to be sent through their network, the hard disks/server manufacturers for not deleting the pics... Ummm, who else?
