The point of the article isn't where to lay blame for the security breach. It's to point out the hypocrisy of people who scream "Invasion of privacy" in every online conversation about the NSA, but somehow still feel justified in viewing or looking for these celebrity photos.
The point of my comment wasn't about blame either, just that the thing that people are so upset about regarding the NSA is the breach of trust, not just normal breach of privacy.
Also consider that no one is going to be surprised or outraged if these people are caught and prosecuted, but we already know who is perpetrating the NSA breaches or privacy and nothing is being done. There are a lot of reasons why these things are perceived very differently.
