And what it tells us about Americans' improved cybersecurity habits.
On Wednesday, the internet was subject to a false alarm. Reports began to surface that “The Fappening 2.0” , another widespread leak of salacious celebrity photos, was underway. Nude pictures (of questionable authenticity) of Amanda Seyfried and Emma Watson reportedly turned up on sites like 4chan and Reddit , and the purported hacker was said to have claimed that many more would follow. None ever did.
Much to the disappointment of the internet’s sleazier denizens, “The Fappening 2.0” turned out to be a non-story. But that doesn’t mean it wasn’t an important one. There are some major takeaways.
The fact that no new pictures have emerged yet points strongly to the fact that the source of the initial leaks was lying, and does not, in fact, have any more unsavory content to share with the world.
The important question that then arises is: Why not? If we assume that an attempt was indeed made by the person who leaked the Amanda Seyfried photos to gain access to pictures of other celebrities, why weren’t they able to get them? Why, if this hacker’s target was, like in the original “Fappening” , the Gmail and iCloud accounts of these celebrities, were they unsuccessful this time?
It could very well be due to heightened awareness about internet security. The first “Fappening” was a widely covered wake-up call to the public about how vulnerable our information can be, and plenty else has happened since then. In the past year alone, Russia hacked a U.S. election , two Russian spies were accused of hacking Yahoo to steal the personal information of millions , and the FTC decided it will do little to prevent future incidents .
That “The Fappening 2.0” was unsuccessful is indicative of increased internet literacy among the public, with more and more people gaining the savvy necessary to protect our information . The understanding, for example, that Google and other similar companies will never contact your to ask for information may well be more common knowledge than it was three years ago. Other information gathering schemes, such as spear phishing , are also gaining more attention, which can only lead to better prevention methods.
It’s an optimistic reading of the situation, to be sure, but the evidence — or lack thereof — appears to bear it out. On the topic of celebrity nude photo leaks, no news is indeed good news. “The Fappening 2.0” turned out to be no news.

Fappening 2.0 began with image and video leaks of Harry Potter star, Emma Watson, supermodel, Amanda Seyfried and Mischa Barton.What was just a flow of NSFW images soon became a deluge as the iCloud hackers started leaking more and more images and videos of more and more celebrities. As said in our earlier post, unlike the Fappening 1.0 of 2014, this time the Fappening hackers have gone versatile and are also leaking images of WWE stars and singers.
If you have been following Techworm’s Celebgate 2014 coverage, the brunt of Fappening 1.0 concentrated on Hollywood stars. The new Fappening 2.0 seems to concentrate more on other celebrities. It all began with private photos of Emma Watson and Amanda Seyfried circulating on the “dark web” and then on 4chan last week before the images made it to Reddit. Thereafter a raunchy website called Celeb Jihad picked up the images and videos. Now the hackers are directly leaking the images and videos to Celeb Jihad.
The Fappening 2.0 hackers then proceeded to leak more private images of celebrities like Rose McGowan (actress), Katie Cassidy (actress), Alyssa Arce (model), Rhona Mitra (actress), Analeigh Tipton (figure skater & actress), Iliza Shlesinger (comedian), Jillian Murray (actress), Paige (WWE star), Dylan Penn (model, daughter of Sean Penn), Kristanna Loken (actress), April Love Geary (model), Trieste Kelly Dunn (actress), and Lili Simmons (actress).”
As we have been reporting about various NSFW Fappening leaks, we have collated the data and prepared a master list of all the celebrities who have been targeted by the iCloud hackers. The list follows no particular order. Also, please note that the hackers may have leaked the Fappening 1.0 images in case of some of the celebrities.
3. Analeigh Tipton (US figure skater and actress)
4. Dylan Penn (model, daughter of Sean Penn)
5. Saraya-Jade Bevis a.k.a Paige (WWE Diva)
8. Jennifer Lawrence (Actor) (Most images from 2014 leaks)
16. Becca Tobin (Actor/Singer/Dancer)
19. Dwayne Wade (Professional Basketball Player)
22. Hayden Panettiere (Model/Actor/Singer)
23. Hope Solo (US Soccer Goalkeeper)
24. Jennette McCurdy (Actor/Singer)
26. Justin Verlander (US Professional Baseball Pitcher)
30. Kim Kardashian (Reality Star/Actor)
32. Krysten Ritter (Actor/Muscian)
52. Danielle Moinet (Professional wrestler, known as Summer Rae)
54. Holly Willoughby (Model and TV presenter)
55. Celeste Bonin (Former professional wrestler known as Kaitlyn)
56. Lauren Cohan (Walking Dead actor)
59. Victoria AKA Lisa Marie Varon (WWE Diva)
68. Raquel Pennington (UFC fighter)
This is the complete list of Hollywood, WWE, Baseball, Basket Ball and other celebrity NSFW images leaked by the iCloud hackers in this round of Fappening 2.0 up to now.
As you can see, top level Hollywood stars are missing from the current list of Fappening 2.0. So, we are expecting another tranche of leaks covering big stars of Hollywood. This is based on ground whispers and what our friends at Hacker News had commented, “According to a screenshot from an original 4chan thread, unknown hackers will be posting more intimate photos of female celebrities, including Kylie Jenner, Marisa Tomei, Jennifer Lawrence and several others, over the next few days, which indicates it’s just the beginning of The Fappening 2.0.”
We will keep updating this master list as more celebrity images get leaked. Till then, au revoir.

An infamous celebrity photo leak known as “The Fappening” and “CelebGate” [1] was first spotted in 2014. However, it seems that today celebrities are under the danger of the second leak which is dubbed “The Fappening 2.0.” The person responsible for the initial photo leak is Edward J. Majerczyk [2] who was sentenced to nine months in prison for his crime. The criminal said that he hacked Gmail accounts and Apple iClouds of more than 300 users and at least 30 celebrities. Edward wasn’t the only one involved in this; Ryan Collins was the second hacker playing his role in this scandal. The third hacker, who is believed to be the one who actually leaked the photos online, hasn’t been caught. Therefore, he might be the one to blame for “The Fappening 2.0.”
The second photo leak started with photos of actors Emma Watson [3] and Amanda Seyfried that were shared on the dark web firstly. Later on, images were dispersed by computer users on various other Internet pages and forums, including Reddit. Eventually, more celebrity photos were exposed – the list includes female actors and models mainly, for instance, Katie Cassidy, Rose McGowan, Lili Simmons, Dylan Penn and more. Some of the leaked photos do not involve nudity, but, unfortunately, some leaked footages show celebrities involved in sexual activities. Cyber criminals even promised to release more intriguing photos of celebrities like Kylie Jenner, Marisa Tomei and, once again, Jennifer Lawrence.
Even if you have no intentions to please yourself while browsing through leaked photographs, you should not try to find them online just to have a brief peek at them. Cyber criminals know that such content intrigues people and makes them forget about their common sense of security. You should beware of scams and malware created specifically for those interested in “The Fappening 2.0.” You should keep clear of websites that advise you to get special software or browser extensions [4] in order to view the leaked photos, otherwise, you can end up installing malware like ransomware, Trojans or password-stealing browser add-ons. Besides, try to stay away from shady-looking shortened URLs posted in online forums and social networks because your curiosity can drag dangerous files or programs to the system!
Scammers have already employed their network of Twitter spam bots that automatically post malicious links on this social network to its users. Allegedly, these links should point you to “The Fappening 2.0” photos. However, researches have revealed that most of these links trick users into installing the “Viral News” software which rapidly hacks victim’s Twitter profile and uses it to generate spam posts. Another scam tricks users into installing Viralnews(dot)com which has an ability to access users' Twitter login information, update their profile, and even post Tweets! There is no doubt that, after installing such app on your computer, you can become a victim of leakage yourself. Scammers can also try to blackmail you and ask you to pay a ransom for keeping stolen photos private. Besides, considering that scammers were able to break into Gmail and iCloud accounts so easily, we would like to advise you not to reuse same passwords for different websites and, ideally, use two-step authentication [5] to validate your identity when logging into your personal accounts. This way, hackers, and scammers won’t succeed in trying to infringe your privacy.
UPDATE : When it seemed that the craze of Fappening 2.0 already subsided, hackers broke the silence on April 12, 2017 by leaking more photos online. This time, they extended the list of affected celebrities with names such as Miley Cyrus, Suki Waterhouse, Rosario Dawson [6] , and reportedly Allison Brie and Sophie Turner. If you are interested in this topic, remember that scammers are aware of it. If you try to find websites that publish such content online, remember that cyber frauds might be trying to attack you using social engineering tricks – they seek to lure you in by promising to reveal interesting visual content, while actually, they might be trying to send you a little malicious surprise instead. Better think about your privacy, because celebrities are human beings just like you and the fact that their accounts were hacked means your privacy can be compromised as well. Besides, remember that by viewing leaked photos you violate the privacy of those celebrities, too. They didn't want these pictures to be leaked, so we invite you to not support cyber criminals by showing interest in the leaked content.
