Rootkits exist that survive OS reinstalls. I don't know how prevalent they are, but if you expect a target to try to reinstall their operating system to attempt to purge an infection it is possible to counter this.
Really? where would the rootkit hide? Even if I replace all my HD sectors with zeros? I'm truly interested to know if this is real. thanks

Sure, she can say that. Some professions don't welcome people who have nude photographs of themselves on the Internet - teachers, for example. It seems baffling to me that her partner would consider leaving her, but the article says it was a concern. Or sometimes people at vulnerable points in their lives are outed. Or not even outed, just plain blackmailed. It's very easy to say "just shrug it off", but the numbers…
Those links are about very different cases of children being blackmailed. What's at issue in the link is leaked pictures of grown women. Clearly the behaviour of the people involved in this is abhorrent (for multiple reasons) but there has to be a point where you stop caring. Moore is not the only asshole in the story by a long stretch. He might not even be the worst. I mean, if the boyfriend thought about leaving he…
A somewhat related note is that America's culture of sex-negativity, shame and general hysteria around nudity is a required prerequisite for this type of bullying and abuse. Look at the following paragraph: > Jill became hysterical, repeating, "Oh, my God. No. Oh, my God. No." This is, obviously, the reaction of someone who fears repercussions from others. And this is for completely harmless acts (taking nude photos)…
I know I'm preaching to the choir, but I agree; this country needs to grow the fuck up.

So would you say that Hunter Moore is really a hero? Helping us all get over our hang ups wether we like it or not?
He makes Sean Parker look like a respectable businessman. That's how bad he is.

Presumably both of you will now go ahead and post naked pictures of yourself since you don't care if anyone sees them? Perhaps follow up with bank and medical records? Or do you feel that privacy only applies to things other than nudity? Oh and I'm sure you wouldn't mind hundreds of people contacting you and your employer and calling you all sorts of names.
I think the fact, as per the article, a victim teaching at a school was treated like the perpetrator is partially what they are referring to. Just like the good old days where the rape victims were the ones at fault. Society has a lot to blame for here as well.

I'm glad the FBI & judicial system appear to have been effective in this story. The fundamental reason this sort of thing happens (again, in my eyes) is because the internet is still a pretty lawless place; that's the root of what happened here.

And nice derailing into "men are hurt by society toooooo!!!" Perverts aren't good, and these days they're called rapists. And there are a lot of them. But maybe you think rape/sexual assault only happens in dark alleys the woman probably shouldn't have been walking down anyway..
What's really sick is the personality cult around this creep, even after the end of IAU. I had originally assumed that the "I love Hunter" posts that appear on the Internet on the topic were him-- he's a troll; trolls do that-- but apparently he has real-life fans. It's basically the Shawn Parker story. No real accomplishments, but active participation in the party scene leads to high status. If this current incarnat…
Yeah, I just had a look at his Twitter, there's a lot of girls sending him naked pictures and telling him how much they love him, and a bunch of sycophants avidly defending him (in a highly misogynistic manner, natürlich).
