The Fappening... Why it is important?

During the weekend, a massive amount of nude pictures of female celebrities infested the internet.

He survived the Fappening.
This event was dubbed "the fappening" or "celebgate" for those who are afraid of mentioning what will be the use for said pics. The feds are now involved.

Now, why is this Fappening important? Simple:
Can't protect a Flower girl, much less your data.
Never put your trust in Cloud Storage... It sucks at protecting stuff... Then again, I knew that Cloud's Protection sucked ass since 1997.

The issue arises from the fact that Apple's iCloud makes a backup of everything, like photos. If you delete them from the phone, they're on the Cloud. Once it's on the internet, it's nearly impossible to remove it from the internet.

Second, and most obvious issue:

If you want to take nude pictures of yourself, you must be aware of the risks that come with that.
-Other people might see the pics.
-In this modern era THEY WILL MAKE IT TO THE INTERNET.
-They have the potential to ruin careers.

So, if you don't want people to see your boobs, then don't take pictures of your boobs! Before anyone says "Victim Blaming", hear me out.

The hackers actions are deplorable. That is a fact. Very little would have changed if there had been no nude pics, because Hacking is still illegal and wrong. Saying that they should have taken steps to prevent these issues to happen is NOT Victim Blaming or siding with the hackers. The bad action from the hackers does not absolve the victims from their bad decisions. 

Now, this Fappening issue will bring some good things:
-Force Cloud Storage Companies to up their protection.
This Trailer:

-A revised version of Seth McFarlane's We saw your boobs
-Raise awareness about phones uploading your crap to the internet and making copies of it.

If you saw them and enjoyed them, good for you! If you refuse to see them, good for you too!
