Nice try, Minnesota, but the Fappening turned out to be a complete hoax, at least in relation to it being photos stolen from Apple's iCloud. On investigation, it turned out to be a guy who was a member of a 4Chan group who collected nude pictures of celebrities who traded those pictures with the agreement they were never to be sold outside the group, who decided to break that agreement. He made the offer to sell his collection on Reddit... and to obfuscate their actual source claimed he had hacked into iCloud.

The guy trying to sell the photos was found, arrested, pled guilty, and had to admit exactly what he did in court.

The photos' meta data showed they came from various digital cameras, phones, including Android phones, some iPhones, some from PC Internet cameras, screen captures, many were captured from commercial movie frames. . . but what they did NOT have were any meta data showing a source from Apple's iCloud. Some celebrity iCloud accounts were compromised by the collectors through phishing to get their AppleID passwords, but there was no wholesale hacking of iPhones or Apple's iCloud.

This was all covered here on FR when it was going down.

“This means more naked celebrity photos taken on their iPhone released on the internet.”

Or maybe a few naked children inserted unwittingly?

They should try Jennifer Lawrence’s phone and see if she’s added any new ones. As a scientific experiment, of course.
