El theft of personal and private photographs of many celebrities, Especially from Hollywood actresses, she has given a lot to talk about. During the first days in which 4chan began to publish each and every one of the images that had been stolen, Apple began to receive battles everywhere. Apparently it was Apple's fault because the iCloud service did not block access to the service when brute force was used, but shortly after, in addition to denying it the company itself, it was found that the hacker had actually used a Gmail email, very similar to the one used by Apple to recover passwords, except for @gmail, to send an email to celebrities and redirect them to a fake website in order to obtain their Apple ID password.
The first trial against Andew Helton was just held in Los Angeles. pleaded guilty to the theft of 161 photographs of 13 film industry celebrities, after sending an email impersonating iCloud to request that the password be changed. Last Thursday Judge John A. Kronstadt handed down a sentence and sentenced Helton to six months in prison. Helton obtained the information from the accounts from which he stole the photographs through the website he had created especially for this purpose.
Helton had access to 363 Apple accounts but he only obtained 161 photographs of 13 people. It is clear that not everyone is dedicated to taking compromising photos with the iPhone. In his defense, Helton alleged that the events took place because of the bipolar disorder he suffers from. Apparently the author of the theft of the intimate photographs has been on different occasions in psychological treatment for this type of disorder, a disorder that he suffers when he stops taking the medication for a while.
It was worth it hahahahaha
