This is a normal post There are much more impressive examples for the tech
For example, this russian tech tells you all the social media information for a person, on the fly, from just a photo:
www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/news/russia-launch-facial-recognition-twitter-programme-anyone-face-putin-a7477416.html

Ie. You look at random person in a bar with hololens and it tells you who they are, overlaid with personal information from their social media profiles ...

Sinister much?

This is a normal post NEWSFLASH: Personal information you put on the internet, ends up on the internet.
This app isn't doing anything sinister or hack-like. It's just crawling for information that anybody could find on their own with enough experience/knowhow.

This is a normal post Sure, but the combination of the tech removes every bit of effort from the task
People find that sinister... I don't, you get exactly what you deserve if you publish that information on t'interwebs

This is a normal post That`s what tech does, it makes mundane repetetive tasks free of effort. It`s the reason it exists.
Everything you put on the internet is there for everyone and is there forever.

This is a normal post Well, don't let people take pictures of you naked unless you're willing to accept the possibility they'll appear on the Interwebs.
Sometimes victim blaming is justified.

My girlfriend has plenty pictures of me doing naughty things. I'm pretty confident that they'll stay private. But I took them in the knowledge that there's always a possibility they might get unleashed into the wild, either deliberately or accidentally.

If you don't consider the consequences, maybe having your rude bits displayed on the Internet might be a little life lesson.

This is a normal post That assumes that all such photos/videos are consented to
But assuming consent, you're spot on.

This is a normal post Yeah, consensual.

This is a normal post Then there is no such thing as privacy anymore?
Two people cannot decided to do something without haven't to accept it may be made public?

That a person is justified in releasing revenge porn in order to hurt another human being?

Grim.

This is a normal post I'm not saying it's justified.
If you release intimate pictures/videos of somebody to the public without their consent, then you're an absolute cunt. But I still think it's reasonable to assume that it's a potential outcome before making them in the first place and making your decision based on that.

This is a normal post Well yes you know it's a risk but you don't blame the victim if it happens.
Start doing that and you're going down a very slippery slope.

This is a normal post "If you weren't prepared for the public to see your tits, you shouldn't have taken a photo of them and sent it to someone."
Is a far cry from: "Well, if you didn't wear that revealing top, you wouldn't have been raped."

This is a normal post It was rather fetching.
But it's not like i knew it would go all see-through when I 'accidentally' spilled water on it.

....the FUCK are you talking about? Who said that?

It's as it always was: Sometimes your trust is betrayed by those you hold most dear.
The internet, however, is an extremely quick & effective new means of disseminating information.

This is a normal post Calm down, use your indoor voice.
Quote from the above "Sometimes victim blaming is justified."

I disagree in this case.

Whether it's a fallout from a messy breakup or a deliberate attempt at blackmail of some naive person on the internet who thinks they've met someone nice online.

It's a cuntish thing to do and like a lot of cuntish things is against the law for the very real reason that it causes real harm to others. Just look at the teens that have killed themselves over this sort of thing.

But thank you for pulling yourself away from facebook to join in.

This is a normal post I never said sharing the images was justified. I said blaming the victim was justified to some degree.
Let me put it another way:

You can't blame a rape victim for being raped. The only way to guarantee that you won't be raped is to permanently avoid absolutely all human contact. We're not clairvoyant, so we can't assume we're safe at all times.
It's unreasonable to avoid all humans just to avoid being raped.

You can blame a victim of 'revenge porn' to some degree (if the pictures were made consensually), because they helped create the pictures. If they didn't take the pictures at all, they would never exist and there would be no chance of those pictures becoming public.
It's not unreasonable to avoid making images of your rude bits if you're at all worried about unauthorised eyes seeing them.

This is a normal post Well consents the key here
You consent to make the picture but unless you consent to have that picture share all over the internet on wank sites or used as blackmail I don't think you can be blamed. You could be called naive certainly but not blamed. You did not consent to the action.

I add the blackmail thing here because it's a popular scam at the moment with organised criminals befriending teenage boys and girls and getting them to take photos. Then blackmailing them.

Anyhoo, fuckit I need to work.
