"Cyber bullies are even forcing their girlfriends to undress in front of webcams and then sharing the images with others online."
Goodness, give me the vapors, why don't you? Then file this one in the "hard-hitting journalism" file.

I had a couple of "WTF?!?" moments in reading this. First:
The images are even more likely to be passed on if the couple breaks up, said Mishna.
Umm, if? Sure you don't mean when?
Second:
"Traditional bullying is a power differential . . . The power before could have been age, size, smartness, popularity, ability. Now it's the perceived anonymous nature."
Umm, what? Convincing your girlfriend to pose topless for you isn't about power differentials. Humiliating her with it afterward by showing it to your friends may be, but that's why smart girls have similarly incriminating pictures of you.
My God, QG, are you insane? I thought Mutual Assured Destruction was buried with Peter Sellers?
SWMBCg,etc.
Hey, I'm not suggesting it's the ideal solution -- I'm suggesting it's the best I've heard from teens who don't make the wiser choice of avoiding the practice altogether. Hopefully by the time my daughter is old enough for it to be a concern, the implantable chips will be fully customizable.
