British actress Sienna Miller received one big fat forced apology from UK courts after settling a case with the News of the World tabloid for hacking into her cell phone in order to retrieve personal voicemails between 2005 and 2006. As a result of the case, the publication is being forced to pay the actress a $100,000 settlement and to apologize for the incident.
According to the New York Times, the NOTW has a history of illegally obtaining personal information including a case back in 2007 where editor Clive Goodman and a private detective carried out a similar scheme in order to extract information from the Royals.
Miller suspected something was wrong after she began noticing stories were being published about her life which included incredibly intimate details that no one should have known apart from the people she trusted including on and off flame Jude Law.
It seems to be a bit of an epidemic, two months ago 50 Hollywood female celebs were hacked into and as a result various personal pictures were released online from stars such as Miley Cirus, Christina Aguilera and Scarlett Johansson, who were among the many.
As for Sienna, she was not present in court to hear the apology that was waiting for her and according to the BBC, it is suspected that there many more hacking incidents that took place and were geared not only toward celebrities but politicians and the police as well. So far chief editor, Ian Edmonson and reporter Neville Thurbeck has been arrested.
