Excellent thread

I'm pretty positive now a day that nothing is unhackable.
There always seems to be a way in on everything

Well it looks like you answered your own question. Not sure what we are supposed to say here.

It wasnt really hacked in the sense that software and coding was compromised but jus user accounts. Saw a post on reddit that described how to do it.
Figure out user's email
Click change password
Figure out the persons security question (most people do stupid shite like favorite uncle or first pet)
Log in and steal pics.
The moral of the story is have impossible to answer security questions

Everything is hackable and it's possible to break into any building.
It's just a question of difficulty.

Honest question. How many "Clouds" are there? I assume this is Apple only? I have no idea.
Apple has the "cloud" term trademarked for this purpose, no?

Exactly. Every piece of software is bound to have weaknesses and vulnerabilities somewhere. It's just a matter of finding and exploiting them.

Nothing is unhackable. Only way to make something nearly unhackable is to have it on a closed system.

Every major carrier (AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, T-mobile, etc) has a cloud for your phone whether you sign up for one or not. Most hold about 2 GB of your most recent data

I knew a guy in middle school who would do this shite to people's email addresses. He would just casually ask, "What's your mom's maiden name?"

All the cloud is is a freaking server. Cmon man if anyone thought the cloud was unhackable they're a moron.
