Celebrity Hacking: Is this just the beginning?
 

Hackers colliding with famous people = something explosive.

People take delicious pleasure in tearing celebrities down. Whether it's right or wrong, it's big business, the very circulatory system of the media.

This new shit adds a whole new level of celebrity tear down.

Thoughts?

Didn't that hacker get into Demi Moore's phone or someone like that too? I coulda sworn he had access to several celebs.

People know that celebrities wear smiley public faces, and are more interested in what's "real" at this point. Celebs have become so coached, so branded, so lifeless in some respect, that their fans want the real deal, the candids.

Beyonce walking the beach, without makeup, with JayZ. That sort of thing.

Maybe it's time to get back to my old old career :Graucho

which was?

lol, I am an ex hacker too if that is what your getting at. but hacking doesnt pay the bills and only gets you in trouble

now that one person did it I am sure the rest of the wanna be hacker world is going to try the same fucking thing....and eventually some will be successful

it is going to ugly before it gets pretty again

shure :o)

In the offline world, "celebrity hacking" is simply referred to as "muck raking".

I'm simply wondering whether the attempts to strip celebs of their veneer will become more extreme. Celebrities are walled in behind publicists and assistants, and you could argue that the tech stuff is one of the few areas of vulenerability left.

So I've heard :winkwink:

It can pay the bills though. At least from the knowledge you gain from it. I got a job at an early age that paid way better than anything I hoped for. But before I got to that point I had some run-ins with men in suits :winkwink:

But it's not a road I would like to go down again. The police's technology and knowledge is way more advanced now than what it was 10+ years ago.
