As reported previously, Emma Watson was appointed as a UN Women’s Goodwill Ambassador. As a part of her new position, Emma Watson has been speaking out against injustices against women around the world. Recently many female celebrity personal iClouds were hacked, and hundreds of nude photos were stolen and posted on a public website. Even though Ms. Watson was not targeted in this incident, she spoke out against the public display of the photos, and those who viewed and commented them, tweeting:

Even worse than seeing women’s privacy violated on social media is reading the accompanying comments that show such a lack of empathy.

The Sydney Morning Herald went on to discuss others that share Ms. Watson’s views, those who don’t, and Apple’s response to this iCloud security breech. You may read more here.
