For public figures like Lena Meyer-Landrut, the continuous circulation of "leak" keywords is a persistent violation of personal boundaries. Under German law (specifically the Kunsturhebergesetz and the Strafgesetzbuch regarding the protection of personal privacy and image rights), publishing, sharing, or even linking to unauthorized private images or non-consensual explicit material is strictly illegal.

It was later revealed that the theft had not been an isolated criminal act. The perpetrator, who was in possession of the stolen data, attempted to capitalize on it. According to investigative reports, the individual tried to extort a significant sum of money from Lena Meyer-Landrut. The blackmailer threatened to publish the entire collection of files if his demands were not met.

The incident sparked a complex legal debate. Criminal law experts at the time pointed to the potential for various charges, including theft of data, blackmail (also known as "extortion"), and the violation of the right to one's own image. The ethics of the situation were, however, more divided. While many expressed support for the singer and condemned the breach, a segment of online commentary, as reflected in the original report on hadley.tv, took a different view. Comments on social media platforms like Facebook were described as "merciless," with some individuals placing partial blame on Meyer-Landrut for creating and sharing such a vast amount of personal content. This harsh public reaction highlighted a societal double standard that persists regarding the privacy rights of public figures.
