The man who hacked the personal accounts of Scarlett Johansson, Mila Kunis and Christina Aguilera has been sentenced to ten years in jail. A federal judge sentenced 35-year-old Jacksonville, Florida, resident Christopher Chaney yesterday, according to ABC.

In a tearful statement, Johansson said, "I have been truly humiliated and embarrassed. I find Christopher Chaney's actions to be perverted and reprehensible." Naked photos of “The Avengers” star that were meant for then-husband Ryan Reynolds were leaked online last year.

Christina Aguilera, who had numerous candid photographs released over the last few years, said in a statement: “That feeling of security can never be given back, and there is no compensation that can restore the feeling one has from such a large invasion of privacy."

Photos that were found on Kunis’ phone included topless pictures of Justin Timberlake and an image of Mila in the bath.

Plenty of other celebrities have fallen prey to hackers and had revealing photos released online – major examples include Jessica Alba, “Gossip Girl” star Blake Lively and “High School Musical” starlet Vanessa Hudgens.

Poor Miley Cyrus had her Gmail account hacked when she was just 15, and revealing pictures apparently taken for Nick Jonas were posted online.

And Selena Gomez’s Facebook account was hacked by a 21-year-old McDonald’s employee who threatened to release emails between Gomez and Justin Bieber to the press.

Someone finding nude pictures of yourself is humiliating, but someone finding nude pictures of a celebrity (especially when you're a celebrity) is much more humiliating.

The sad part is Scarlet taking racy photos of herself. If she hadn't, not that she didn't have the ability and personal will to do so, just that if she hadn't it would not be out there if stolen. Live your life as if everyone is watching. Don't do in private what you won't do in public.

I made the comment on an another topic on the WBC getting hacked that it couldn't happen to a nice bunch of guys (sarcasm), but in truth the hacker was in the wrong as well.

The guy just did what I have been tempted to do for years.

Of course its Scarlett moron. You set it up that way by leading with her story. Where is your "other" choice for people to pick over Scarlett herself, making you look stupid as hell for asking this crap.

Actually, I feel that ALL OF THEM were needlesly hacked and humiliated. I don't like hackers or virus creators, they should ALL be in prison for life or executed if what they did causes the death or deaths of others.
Hacking is a Crime and should be dealt with by the harshest punishment possible.

Its screwed up what our world has become isn't it? It could have been prevented if those idiots would stop allowing pictures/videos of themselves while naked but apparently they love it otherwise it wouldn't have happened. Something else I feel needs mentioning is that if someone only likes you for your looks or your naked body then their not worth being with its as simple as that.

As for the hackers they deserve what they got and then some. Stealing sensitive info and threatening to black mail is unforgivable if it were up to me I'd say lock them up for life.

Vanessa Hudgens

I don't know who most of these celebrities are. I note though that they earn lots of money and glamourous lifestyle from choosing to be public figures and it seems a bit disingenuous for them to claim severe trauma when they occasionally lose control of their public image manufacturing machines.

More importantly, this offender's over the top 10 year sentence is mainly an example of sexism in the justice system. Because the victims of his offending are female the system takes an especially empathetic and protective stance, and any offence if committed by a male is punished more severely than the same offence committed by a female. Imagine if the hacker here had been a woman and the people she hacked were men; we could expect some minor punishment, possibly a 'helping' sentence without any real punishment, or even a discharge without conviction. No doubt she would blame 'battered women syndrome' (often meaning 'indignant woman's syndrome') or some male in her life, and the Court would nod understandingly. Don't get me wrong, I think it's quite appropriate for this hacker to be convicted and punished, but 10 years in jail is ridiculous and shows how successful feminism (read femaleism) has been at demonizing men and turning society into a gender class system with women as the new royalty and men the underclass slaves.

Seriously shame on them for putting porn on where it could be exposed.As far as Smiley goes,imo shame on her,she's supposedly setting a good example for young teens. This is behavior I'd expect from those trashy Kardashians.

Amber F... to Fred Fo... 2012/12/20 23:33:28

They are trying to make an example to all black hackers, not just ones who hack celebrities. What about hackers who steal identities, financial data, or government information? Virtual theft needs to be viewed as a serious crime. 10 years MAY have been harsh, but you can't go comparing sentencing for 2 different types of crimes. I think hackers will face harsh punishments in the future because of this.

In my opinion, if you don't want nudes leaked then you probably shouldn't take any. If you do decide to take them/have them taken use a Polaroid camera or something old school. Digital/ all these fancy-like technologies is not the way to go if you want to keep them hidden, Meaning no phones, computers, etc.
I've no sympathy for anyone but Mr. Vengeance. I find things of this matter to be trashy.
