Naked Celebrity Leaks!

     When I first looked at the article I didn't think the points that were made was what the article was actually going to be about. I thought it was just going to talk about the pictures of all these women being leaked and what people said about them, not that they have nothing to apologize for. It was kind of a nice twist. I like how the authors main point of this article was that women like Jennifer Lawrence, Kirsten Dunst, and Ariana Grande don't have to say sorry for what has happened and that what has happened isn't a scandal, it's a crime and they are the victims. Here, the author Scott Mendelson says "victims have absolutely nothing to apologize for in terms of the contents of the photos or the nature in which they were leaked" (Mendelson, Scott). He's saying that what has been done shouldn't be a scandal, and that these women have done nothing wrong and I agree with him. He states that it's alright for them to take pictures and have them on their cellphones, but for someone to take them and leak them is wrong. People always belittle women when this happens instead of telling the man who did this to stop, or women have to be cautious of what they're wearing etc, instead of putting a stop to the person who would be guilty of doing these crimes. I think the women should be allowed to have pictures of themselves on their personal cellphones just like men do and not be hated for it. It's their phones and their privacy, it shouldn't be taken away. People always make it out to be something so much worse than what it really is, they didn't want these photos to be leaked, it's not like that was their goal. They're privacy shouldn't be invaded, it's not fair and I think people tend to love to do it to famous people because of their name and the fact that it could potentially ruin them. I agree with everything that Mendelson said, I think that this isn't a scandal, but it's a crime and they people who did this should be caught and locked up. All these women that this has happened to have nothing to apologize for, they shouldn't be ashamed, but they should carry on and let people hate and just know that more people can't keep their names out of their mouths.
