Hacks

It seems like every time I turn around - at least once a week or so - there is a story about some celebrity or other whose accounts have been hacked, and their nude, and/or compromising photos posted on line for all the world to see.
This ticks me off in  couple of ways:
First - Why did these photos exist in the first place?  What were they thinking?  Did they really expect them to remain private?
And Second - The stories about these embarrassing hacks never show the pictures, not even links to them so we can see what all the hubbub is about.  
Granted, many of these stories are about people whose names I barely recognize, and are often about folks I might pay not to see naked, but why publish the stories at all if we can't see what they are about.
