Sending naked pictures of yourself to people you’re having a sexual relationship with online can add a little spice to the conversation, but at what cost? New reports are saying that nearly all sexually driven photos sent to people online are seen by people the author did not intend them to be seen by.
The New York Times recently did a study on the increasingly popular trend of nude photos leaking online. When the subject of the picture, almost nine of every ten instances the photos were obtained illegally through e-mail or cell phone hacking, but when the subject was a non-famous person who voluntarily sent the photos to someone online, an astonishing 90% of the time, those photos were distributed by the original recipient of them.
