The users aren't the idiots here, they had no reason to assume their private pictures would be shared (and even if you put a disclaimer on there, you can't expect people to read that). Besides, the admins of the service must have been fully aware people were sharing sensitive pictures, and they did nothing about it! And it wasn't a public URL, it was a URL secured by a lousy hash. Virtually indistinguishable from a URL generated by Google Docs.
I think your statement (where you call the users idiots) represents everything that's wrong with the current security-lax web services crowd.
