I'm pretty sure this is a fake. This Kenny Withers guy - (NSFW) <a href="http://kennywithers.com/featured-online-marketing-articles/the-snappening-snapchat-accounts-hacked/" rel="nofollow">http://kennywithers.com/featured-online-marketing-articles/t...</a> seems to be posting it to a bunch of different news sites who are all reporting it now.<p>Tineye some of the images that are purportedly from the "leak", the few that I've checked have been around for a long time.
The more interesting thing about this is that it is likely to result in a higher 'hit' rating of nude/risky pics as somebody using snapsave inherently is intentionally attempting to keep pictures the sender knew were going to be automatically deleted.<p>Another concern would be the age range in these pictures. I personally perceive snapchat as a 'young' persons app. I have a feeling a lot of these pictures will be classified as child porn (sub 18 pics).
So Snapsave, which saves photos and videos received in Snapchat on your own device, also uploads them to their servers? That's pretty damn creepy.
I still don't get it. How people can seriously believe that something you send to another, uncontrollable device can be displayed once but impossible to be saved for later use? This had to happen, sooner or later.

I wonder if this will hurt snapchat. $10bil valuation and this breach hits at the heart of their product. Maybe yahoo can withdraw their $20mil if they have not actually handed it over.
