Revenge Porn Site Operator Sentenced To 18 Years

a reply to: abe froman

I dont understand why people save this sort of material. Every picture or video I have ever made with my wife was deleted very soon after and the data storage device was then formatted writing zeros to the drive.....or physically destroyed.

Anything else is asking for trouble.

dont take nudes unless you want others to see. dont own a camera that doesnt have a physical shutter or one you cant disconnect from your PC.

maybe its just our generation. I am used to physically unplugging my internet phone line /ethernet connection....That paranoia leaks into the rest of my habits with technology. Remove batteries from phones.....cut power physically.

The name of this mofo's website 'ugotposted' already says enough.

Kevin deserved a long time in a prison cell, but the full eighteen years is too harsh for his crime. (possible parole after 10 years). Most violent criminals(rapists-murderers) get way less than him. Just look at that cop that shot the black kid and didn't even get sentenced. The extortion of these woman probably made his prison sentence so long and the government also wants to send a message to other clones like myex, DO NOT POST LINKS TO ADULT SITES ON ATS ,... to shutdown their site. The guy knew it was totally wrong, but the easy dollars (30,000+) made it hard to stop doing it.

Revenge porn is here to stay, even with a new strict law, since guys share their ex-girlfriends pics-vids in a state of 'anger', but at least the girls have the law on their side now, although once your pictures-vids are spread online, good luck trying to get them completely down.

Woudn't it be more smart to do more about prevention in high schools? How about teaching youngsters about 'revenge porn' in sex education class? If they are informed about the possible consequences of sharing themselves naked, then we'll see less future victims?

Wow. What's wrong with people?

Smart man.

I think people should read this...

Phones and computers can be lost or stolen, he said. But more importantly, nothing on the Internet is private. During his 90-minute workshop, Guerry shared how to avoid a "self-inflicted digital issue."

Don't post anything online you wouldn't want everyone to see, even if you think it's a secure or a private site, he said, mentioning popular sites like Photobucket.com, Facebook.com and MySpace.com.

Only secure sites, such as banking or shopping sites, will display an "s" after the http and will also feature a picture of a lock in the browser. Nothing else should be considered secure, he said.

Once a digital image is on a computer or a phone, it's there forever, even if it's been deleted, he said. Because of advances in recovery software, photos will never be permanently deleted from memory cards on cameras or cell phones.

The Internet is not the steel door people think it is, he said. There's the threat of a photo or personal information being used on a website without your consent or knowledge. He used an example of two parents who used an online photography site to upload personal photos of themselves, thinking it was private and available only to them. They learned the account had been hacked and their photos stolen when their 18-year-old son found their personal photos on an adult site.

People can take images and use them without consent or hack accounts and use information, including photos, to blackmail you, Guerry said.

Think twice before posting any private pictures online or be ready to face consequences...Sad but true.

You tell true 18 years just for this crime are too much !

How is possible to give so many years for this crime, some poeple get very few yars just for more serious crime !

An anyway i dont understand how is possible that people work on porn are immediatly considered guilty when people that sell weapons never finish in prison !

I think this guy's sentence was much to harsh. I believe he was at fault, but that the senders, and sharers of the nude pictures we're more at fault. I feel that if you send a nude, you place trust in the person at the receiving end. You have sent it to them basically giving them 'admin rights' to this pic, which I believe they may do with as they please.

If you placed you're trust in a jack-ass, that's your poor judgement that is at fault.

As for the uninformed people thinking that info on a cell is never safe, just encrypt it. Encryption works best, nothing less than a 256bit hash. And don't back things up to the cloud. That's how the 'fappening' started and will continue.

When it comes to tech, and you don't know how to use it, then don't. That, or get informed and understand what you are doing so you can understand the possible ramifications.

Anyway it seem to be he is not alone, i recently read that in italy where the power of Church is very strong they are fighiting with all legal instruments they have all type of "not moral" business in their opinion !

This is why owners of many site they register their company abroad to avoid possibilities to finish in problem with the police and justice.

Some time ago i found a news on a famous blog was tell they wanna shut down the site DO NOT LINK TO ADULT SITES ON ATS that is one of the biggest italian adult site ! Really i dont understand where are we going ! This world is creazy considering there are people around that take advantage from prostitution for example. People that work in the adult business they are not criminal ! This sure is my opinion, but i dont't think to be far from the true !
