A story that’s affecting hundreds of thousands of people tonight, and possibly you, the Snappening. That’s what they’re calling a new hack of 200,000 Snapchat users. If you don’t know it, it’s the popular instant-message picture app all the kids are using.
Those pictures are supposed to disappear after the chat is over, which leads to a lot of very intimate pictures. But now, they’re being posted to sites like 4-Chan.
It sounds familiar, it’s almost exactly what happened to Hollywood celebrities a couple of weeks ago. The only difference is where the pictures came from. But the very pact that so many celebrities have taken naked pictures with their phones is kind of a cultural measure of what’s normal these days.
So do you think it’s now just a matter of course that everybody has nude pictures online?
