ICLOUD HORROR

Delta Sued After Worker Filmed Lewd Videos on Passenger’s Forgotten iPad

The parents of the child who left the device behind found graphic images of a man wearing a company lanyard on their iCloud account.

A South Carolina couple has sued Delta Air Lines after a child’s forgotten pink iPad was allegedly stolen by an employee and used to upload graphic sexual images. Tory and Brooke Brewer claim in the suit that they found the lewd images—published by TMZ, appearing to show a man in a Delta lanyard masturbating—uploaded to their iCloud account after the “Peppa Pig” iPad was left behind after a July 2023 flight. “What should have been a fun family getaway was riddled with confusion and anxiety over unauthorized access to their personal devices, a breach of privacy, and the transmission of highly inappropriate, explicit video recordings sent through their child’s personal devices, something they never would have expected,” the Brewers’ attorney, Tola Familoni, said in a statement. The Brewers hoped the airline “would have acknowledged their role and responsibility for what happened to this family,” but “unfortunately didn’t do that,” sending only a “no reply” response, according to The Guardian. In a statement, Delta said “the accused individual is not a Delta employee but one of a vendor company,” adding that it has “zero tolerance for unlawful behavior of any kind but will decline to comment further on this pending litigation.” The name of the vendor was not disclosed, and the Daily Beast has contacted Delta for further clarification.
