What is Hunter Moore known for?

Hunter Moore is a convicted felon from Sacramento, California who is mostly known for his website Is Anyone Up?

Moore began the website in 2010. It is a revenge porn website that allows users to post sexual and explicit photos of people online without their consent, often with personal information such as their names and addresses.

He refused to remove photographs upon request. Moore also paid a hacker to break into victims’ email accounts and steal private photos to post online.

Many of the subjects were outraged by their inclusion on the site, claiming that the explicit photos were stolen from their personal computers or shared with former boyfriends or girlfriends and that the photos were posted as a form of retaliation.

Moore allegedly responded to multiple cease-and-desist letters with “LOL” and frequently claimed that the law protected his activities.

Moore was eventually subjected to a slew of lawsuits and an FBI investigation. A woman who had been featured on the site also stabbed him in the shoulder with a pen. Moore sold the website to an anti-bullying organisation on April 19, 2012.
