Yeah... radical transparency isn't leaking nudes. That's just breaking the law.

What is good doesn't necessarily correlates with what is legal. I'm totally aware that it's illegal, but that doesn't mean I can't support it.

  In what was is this good for anyone?
  - miguelrochefort 12y ago
    Were there not any demand for these? Demand alone demonstrates it's good for at least a few people. Generally speaking, transparency makes the world better and more efficient. You might not be able to see what good it does, but the positive effect is certain. Privacy and secrecy is just ignoring the problems. We must see them in order to fix them, and that's why transparency and communication is so important.

      I hate to go for the obvious one[1] here but... 'At least a few people' have demand for child porn and enjoy it. Are you saying pedophilia is good? [1] Please tell me which logical fallacy I'm using here

        I was asked if X is "good for anyone". I did not make any statement about the objective value (good or bad) of pedophilia, but I do think it's subjectively (to some people) good. Given an objective question instead of a subjective one, I would have answered differently.

      Which part of which celebrity's body did you think needed "fixing"?
      - miguelrochefort 12y ago
        What needs "fixing" is the thing for which all the drama is a symptom. Someone can tweet that [some celebrity] was at [some location] at [some time], and little or no drama will occur. We just accept that this knowledge can't remain secret, and that's alright. We should react the same way for all knowledge/data/information, including these pictures. I understand that people react this way because it's "new", but we quickly will get used to it, as these leaks will become the new normal. Transparency just accelerates this shift, which is unavoidable in the long run.
