    Who the flip...

    ...takes photos of themselves whilst having sex ? What kind of woman would agree to having photos taken ? What kind of duffus then puts those images on their hard drive in an unencrypted form ? What kind of super-duffus takes their laptop to get repaired knowing those images are on the hard drive in an unencrypted form ?

    Still, getting death threats for photographing yourself with actresses and singers just goes to show the cultural divide. Here is the UK we'd have given the bloke a medal. Perhaps a peerage if he'd posted them on his own website!!

    Erm, that would be me

    "What kind of woman would agree to having photos taken ?"

    That would be the handbrake.

    "What kind of duffus then puts those images on their hard drive in an unencrypted form ?"

    OK, you got me on this one.

    " What kind of super-duffus takes their laptop to get repaired knowing those images are on the hard drive in an unencrypted form ?"

    No idea, but it apparently happens. Either some people view helldesk monkeys as some kind of doctor with a Hippocrates-like pledge, or they just have no clue. Probably the latter. Think of it as him thinking "the pictures are in my password-protected 'session', it's safe".

    "And, ahem, can anyone point me towards a torrent of these images ?"

    Not yet...

    Mine's the one with the court appeal in the pocket.
