The Russian man named Sergei Kholodovskii reportedly told The Sun on Monday that "If there are more pictures to post, we will post them."
He also said he doesn't have an issue with posting hacked celebrity nude photos of actresses such as Jennifer Lawrence and Amber Heard or models like Kate Upton.

"These pictures are good PR for these celebrities. Some of them were not that [well-]known before," he said. "Now people are talking about them." He also said that all of these photos come from "open sources."
"If somebody is unhappy to the point of taking action to sue us - well, we'll just shut down the website and that will be it," he said.
Lawrence famously disagreed with him recently calling the hacking a "sex crime."
"The law needs to be changed, and we need to change. That's why these websites are responsible," the actress told Vanity Fair (via E!). "Just the fact that somebody can be sexually exploited and violated, and the first thought that crosses somebody's mind is to make a profit from it. It's so beyond me. I just can't imagine being that detached from humanity. I can't imagine being that thoughtless and careless and so empty inside."
