"Playboy says it will no longer print images of nude women"

Its executives admit that Playboy has been overtaken by the changes it pioneered. “That battle has been fought and won,” said Scott Flanders, the company’s chief executive. “You’re now one click away from every sex act imaginable for free. And so it’s just passé at this juncture.”

The magazine will adopt a cleaner, more modern style, said Jones, who as chief content officer also oversees its website. There will still be a Playmate of the Month, but the pictures will be “PG-13” and less produced — more like the racier sections of Instagram. “A little more accessible, a little more intimate,” he said. It is not yet decided whether there will still be a centerfold.

Its sex columnist, Jones said, will be a “sex-positive female,” writing enthusiastically about sex. And Playboy will continue its tradition of investigative journalism, in-depth interviews and fiction. The target audience, Flanders said, is young men who live in cities. “The difference between us and Vice,” he said, “is that we’re going after the guy with a job.”

Flanders and Jones feel that the magazine remains relevant, not least because the world has gradually adopted Hefner’s libertarian views on a variety of social issues. Asked whether Hefner’s views on women were the exception to that rule, Flanders responded that Hefner had “always celebrated the beauty of the female figure.”

“Don’t get me wrong,” Jones said of the decision to dispense with nudity, “12-year-old me is very disappointed in current me. But it’s the right thing to do.”

Red Sox's Clay Buchholz: Wife's nude photo hacked

From the report:

"It was crazy, It is what it is," he added. "It was one of those things, if we could have prosecuted, we would have prosecuted. But as far as the laws go, I think it was done in the Netherlands and they have fence around them where you can'€™t do anything. We had lawyers look into it.

"It was pretty shocking. It was one of those things. There'€™s always looking to get somebody. It just happened to be me. There were multiple other people that it happened to, obviously. Seriously, it took five days and we really didn'€™t hear about it anymore."

Buchholz's wife reportedly said soon after the leak that the photos had initially been sent to Buchholz and were for his eyes only.

The best advice I read somewhere... if you don't want people to see your nude pictures, don't take them.

Jennifer Lawrence says Nude Photo Hack was a "Sex Crime"

"It is not a scandal. It is a sex crime," Lawrence declares.

Following "The Fappening," as Reddit unceremoniously dubbed it, Lawrence admits she was tempted to write a public statement, but "every single thing that I tried to write made me cry or get angry. I started to write an apology, but I don't have anything to say I'm sorry for. I was in a loving, healthy, great relationship for four years. It was long distance, and either your boyfriend is going to look at porn or he's going to look at you.

"Just because I'm a public figure, just because I'm an actress, does not mean that I asked for this," Lawrence continues, referring to the victim-blaming that occurred in the wake of the leak, some of which came from fellow celebrities such as Ricky Gervais and Clay Aiken. "It does not mean that it comes with the territory. It's my body, and it should be my choice, and the fact that it is not my choice is absolutely disgusting. I can't believe that we even live in that kind of world."
