Welcome to Bob’s grill! Each week this August, you’re invited to join Bob in his backyard to fire up the barbecue and turn up the heat. But, on occasion, a burger and a cold one just won’t suffice. So this week we’re roasting a whole pig.

Hunter Moore is the creator of the now-defunct website IsAnyoneUp.com, an amateur “revenge porn” site with an insidious social networking component. The site featured nude photos submitted anonymously, usually by angry exes looking for vengeance. But rather than just publishing the photos online for the world to see, Moore’s site also included links to the naked person’s social networking profiles, further amplifying the shame. In this interview from 2011, Bob grills Moore on why he does what he does.
