How’s this for irony –a 33 year old Reddit user who played a massive part in making last month’s leaked celebrity photos available all over the web is now freaking out over an invasion of his privacy by the media.
Reddit user ‘Johnsmcjob’ wasn’t the one who directly hacked the photos (that would be this dude), but he started TheFappening board (now closed) on Reddit, which became the go-to link for anyone on the web looking to view the entire collection.
He’s now taken to Reddit again to complain about a Washington Post story profiling (but not directly naming) him after they took a look through his Reddit post history.
He wrote:
Why is my being on an asexuality website or an Aspergers board relevant to my work on /r/TheFappening? I decided Thursday that I wouldn’t delete my account and if the press wants to send me thru the ringer, so be it. I won’t be bullied into silence.
He also wasn’t happy about them revealing he’s an active user on Reddit’s cocaine forum and had difficulty paying bills. He was even asking for loans from other users to pay his gas bill.
So, does this guy have some nerve or what? Love how he’s talking about his “work” on the Fappening like posting up leaked celebrity nudes is an actual profession. Who does think he is, a Sick Chirpse blogger? Go do a line of coke and get over it dude, and pay your gas bill as well.
