Prosecutors said he illegally accessed the email accounts of more than 50 people in the entertainment industry between November 2010 and October 2011.
Nude photos Johansson had taken of herself were later posted on the internet. Johansson told Vanity Fair in its December issue that the photos were meant for Ryan Reynolds, now her ex-husband.
Chaney mined through publicly available data to figure out password and security questions for celebrity accounts.

Once he had control of their email account, he also went through their contact lists to find email accounts of fellow stars.
He also hijacked a forwarding feature so a copy of every email a celebrity received was sent to an account he controlled, according to court documents.
A search warrant said Chaney's computer hard drive contained numerous private celebrity photos and a document that compiled their extensive personal data.
