Jones, whose own web site was hacked in August resulting in
nude photos and personal information including her passport and
driver's license being posted, offered her perspective during
her recurring gig as an impassioned contributor to the weekly
comedy show's "Weekend Update" news segment.
"I am very comfortable with who I am. I am an open book," Jones
declared, noting "I keep my porn in a folder labeled porn."
"If you wanna see Leslie Jones naked, just ask," the comedian
added, in what one Twitter user, an entertainment web site
editor, said may have been Jones' "finest SNL moment."
After starring in the "Ghostbusters" film this summer, Jones
briefly quit Twitter because she was bombarded by racist and
abusive comments.
"If I was good at computers, I wouldn't waste it trolling on
people," Jones said. Instead, "I would do something useful, like
renew my driver’s license from home. I would hack into Tinder
and delete all those other girls’ profiles, so no matter where
you swipe, you get me."
Adopting a seemingly more serious tenor, Jones scolded hackers
by saying "If you want to hurt anybody these days, you're going
to have to do way more than leak their news or call them names.
You can’t embarrass me more than I have embarrassed myself."
"At a certain point you got to stop being embarrassed and just
start being you, and I have been me for 49 years. Because the
only person who can hack me is me," she vowed, adding:
"My firewall is a crazy-ass bitch with a shovel.”
