GL understanding the next contract you sign then.![]()
How many people does it take getting mugged before it's *not* the criminal's fault any more? Before we start prosecuting the *victim*, because somehow it's *their* fault that the mugger chose to commit a crime?
No, it's *not* "your fault" (not even "kinda") when someone commits a crime and you are the victim.
The *VICTIM* in no way shares guilt, blame, *or* responsibility with the *CRIMINAL* for the actions the *CRIMINAL* took.
I am responsible for *MY* actions. You are responsible for *YOUR* actions. The CRIMINAL is responsible for the CRIMINAL's actions.
I bet anyone who gets shot by an intruder at home is well, asking for it if they didn't have a weapon ready when the intruder knocked the door down while they were napping in the living room.
Still doesn't matter; saw boobs.
How much more do we have to hear about things like this before you actually pay attention? How long has it been since there has been a month where someone famous *hasn't* been hacked in some form or another? Or do you only pay attention when there's nudity involved?![]()
Then they shouldn't be uptight about other people seeing them.![]()
Sorry but the celebrities deserve everything they get when it comes to this stuff. You wanna be famous and worth millions then you will lose some of your privacy and you'll be a target for hacking. Give up the fame and fortunes and this won't happen again. Tough cookies.
Or, don't post nude pictures of yourself onto some server in a remote location where it can be hacked. I guess rich doesn't mean smart, does it? DUH?![]()
Sorry but how does being naked in front of someone can even be close to sending someone a picture or video of you naked. In one case there's nothing they can do to spread or share your nakedness with someone in the other there's pretty much almost anything they can do to do that. They are certainly far from being equivalents or even similar in that sense.This doesn't really make sense. Have you ever been naked in front of someone? Yes? Was your expectation that no one but that other person would see you naked? Yes?
The same is true for taking pictures of yourself, naked or otherwise. You take them to send to *one* person (presumably...), you should be able to reasonably expect it will stay that way. Yes, there's always a chance things will get out, but just because something *could* happen doesn't mean we ought to forgo doing things.
If we all thought like that none of us would ever get out of bed in the morning for fear of being hit by a car.
----------
Yup. And anyone with a lot of money deserves anything that comes to them, because if they weren't rich, people wouldn't envy them and want what they have.
Oh, wait, that's not reasonable either is it
Not everyone is aware that what they're taking pictures of is automatically uploaded. I'd bet 80-90% of the population doesn't really realize it. Does that make them stupid? Not necessarily. Just ignorant of something.
We all know what we know, and have our areas of interests. I suppose an ichthyologist could call me a moron for not knowing the difference between a marlin and a swordfish (a swordfish has, like, a sword, right..?) even as he unwittingly uploads his fish pictures to the cloud. Doesn't make either of us fools.
People tend to think other people stupid for not knowing about things that they themselves have interest in. Yet if they didn't focus on that particular aspect of life, they wouldn't know it, either. This isn't really part of "general knowledge."
You could argue that they should know about the tools they use, but then it could be argued that you probably couldn't name the code names or describe the pinouts of all the ICs in your iPhone, either.
I agree with your first paragraph. (the implication you made) But not the 2nd. If you are sending pics thru the internet and you don't want people to see them, you have a problem. Either just in general or in what you think the internet is.This doesn't really make sense. Have you ever been naked in front of someone? Yes? Was your expectation that no one but that other person would see you naked? Yes?
The same is true for taking pictures of yourself, naked or otherwise.
Just celebs making sure they stay noticed...any way they can.
I've always liked Tim Cook, and I felt he was unfairly treated along with AAPL for a couple of years. I thought it was a good interview up until the point where he blamed The Fappening on phishing. I do not believe all those celebrities were phished. Besides phishing, if it wasn't the unlimited password guesses, it was the ability to reset a password by correctly answering secret questions, which was still possible to do when I looked at this 10 days or so ago. As I wrote then:
According to the KeePass note field for my Apple ID, my 3 questions are, "Pet", "Book", and "Street". I didn't write the whole things down, and as they usually appear in comboboxes, they aren't copyable, but one word is enough to identify them when challenged, so that's what I recorded. While the random strings that are my answers offer no clues to the full questions, I would guess they were something like, "What was the name of your first pet?", "What's your favorite book?", and "What street did you live on as a child?" Someone who is targeting a celebrity who has given broad-ranging interviews and whatnot could probably find out things like this pretty easily, and birth date is a given. People who know me could answer questions like these.
...
I always pick the first three because the questions don't matter - I give random strings generated by Keepass as answers.
I think most people will pick the first three that are easy for them to answer and answer them accurately because they don't know any better. If they did know better, they'd do as I do, and there would be no issue.
This was a case of setting the user up to fail, and I don't think we've heard the last of it. Obviously, he couldn't apologize for it like he did Maps, but dismissing it as "phishing" rings pretty hollow to me as a shareholder. I can only imagine how it rings to the likes of JLaw and her lawyers. I remain flabbergasted that you can reset a password merely by answering these sekrit questions. Fercrissakes, I can't register an account on most rinky-dink forums without having to confirm an email.
Hi there, friendly neighborhood 1Password support here
I want to point out that the article you link to was written in 2012, nearly two and a half years ago. A lot has changed since then, particularly since the article you link to discusses 1Password 3 for iOS and not the new 1Password 4 for iOS.
Absolutely none of that article applies to 1Password 4 for Mac or iOS. The entirety of the encryption side of things has changed.
When this article was published we posted a blog article about it, you can read that here:
http://blog.agilebits.com/2012/03/16/strong-security-requires-strong-passwords/
and
http://blog.agilebits.com/2012/03/30/the-abcs-of-xry-not-so-simple-passcodes/
Then we followed up with some improvements to 1Password 3 to help protect your data, the announcement was here:
http://blog.agilebits.com/2012/04/09/1password-ios-pbkdf2-goodness/
I'd suggest reading those as they talk about a lot of details in that Elcomsoft report that aren't super obvious in their report. Though, once again, none of it applies to 1Password 4.
If you have any questions I'd be happy to discuss with you or you can contact us directly via email and I'll let you discuss with our security expert who will happily explain anything you might want to know about how 1Password works from a security perspective.
