    I think people are missing the point here: A small number of people tried to download the pics, contracted a virus, and impacted everyone who uses the ISP. So that's like if you had Comcast internet, 1% of Comcast users tried to see the pictures and got the virus, and then as a result, you couldn't use the internet. I'm not sure that's worthy of mocking.

      Thank you for calling this out. Unfortunately it's not just affecting the people who were trying to look at the pictures.

    An entire country's Internet infrastructure threatened by interest in Jennifer Lawrence's breasts. Amazing . . .

      I'm curious to see if we will get a round of "you should have known betters" from the peanut gallery. I'm willing to bet these same assholes were the ones gloating that JLaw and the other actresses should have known better and had it coming.

      1) Of course we will. Because humans are awful and hypocritical. Case in point — ME. The video of Ray Rice dragging his fiancée by the hair wasn't enough to get me to stop watching watching the NFL. It took my seeing the actual, awful punch before I would do the right thing.

      2) Can I take it from your name that you were a fan of the show? I kinda drifted by the fourth season or so, but for a while there it was just great! :-)

      I think I'm still stuck in the greys so no one will see this clarification but this had nothing to do with celebrity nudes. It's a completely fabricated connection between the Trend Micro warning and the the Spark DDOS. News sources keep linking this to the nudes scandal because yay clicks, but it's really about people in Eastern Europe targeting vulnerable modems and using those ISP addresses to carry out attacks on sites in Europe.

        Honestly surprised it took this long. This has all the trappings of something that would blow up in this way.

            Damn, I wish I'd thought to do this to dispense a little karmic justice.

                "For obvious reasons..."

                Apparently, not obvious enough to these folks.
