Actually, these leaks are most probably the result of a combination of social engineering, poor security practices by the celebrities, and a small amount of actual hacking/cracking, rather than the result of a gaping security flaw from Apple (probably).
Apple could have potentially had better security, but this is basically the online version of Oceans 11 but for nudey photos rather than money (but also for money).
Slander only covers false statements (and legally only covers spoken statements), so I'm not really sure how you could possibly think unedited photos could be covered by this.
Techdirt has not posted any stories submitted by Anonymous Cowherd.
I wonder how many "innocent" people died on 9/11 if the Pentagon definition of enemy combatant is used.
