Victims of the hacking of celebrities' personal pictures are getting bigger and bigger, leading to an assumption that the person resposible might be releasing the photos to the public batch by batch.
On Saturday, reports that Kim Kardashian's nude pictures were posted online and were already circulating around. This was followed by the release of a topless photo of Johnny Depp's fiance Amber Heard.
It is still unconfirmed that the stolen photos were all related to the previous mishap but there is a strong speculation by the public that it might be the same hacker who are releasing the stolen photos batch by batch.
Aside from Heard and Kardashian, the latest victims were Vanessa Hudgens, Rihanna, Hope Solo, Avril Lavigne, Lake Bell, Mary-Kate Olsen, Aubrey Plaza, Gabrielle Union, Emily Ratajkowski, Kate Bosworth, Meagan Good and Hayden Panettiere. The hacker wasn't finished as additional photos of Jennifer Lawrence and Kaley Cuoco were also released last weekend together with the rest.
Kaley Cuoco and Jennifer Lawrence were some of the celebrities who had their nude photos leaked to the internet the first time around. According to the Big Bang Theory star Kaley Cuoco at an interview, "It was a really bad situation, but I took it to my own hands and made a joke about it." Hunger Games star J-Law was in a not-so-happy-mood when her publicist announced, "This is a flagrant violation of privacy. The authorities have been contacted and will prosecute anyone who posts the stolen photos of Jennifer Lawrence."
The Federal Bureau of Investigation is focusing on the ongoing theft of private pictures but is not at liberty to disclose any current information that they have gathered.
In the meantime, 4chan and Reddit, sites where the photos were first published, removed the photos immediately.
