In case you're wondering, I do feel sorry for these celebrities. I really do. But this situation really is unsurprising.

I would agree that there is a very real risk in doing any business electronically, whether it be personal or otherwise.

That said, the narrative some people are after that this is some how the fault of the victims is ridiculous and disgusting. Again, it's akin to blaming someone who got hit by a drunk driver because they too were on the road. It's not something any normal human being would do, and while you run a risk of getting harmed just by being alive, that doesn't make it your fault.

Victim blaming is just putrid in general, and something that most people only have the guts to do behind a keyboard. It's not something you would ever say to someone's face.

Not as putrid as enjoying the personal pictures of these people, but "boys will be boys!" I suppose (tongue firmly in cheek).
