Summary | Shane Connolly, an assistant commissioner for the Australian police, said that in order to avoid becoming victims of revenge porn, people should just stop taking selfies. The author of the article does not agree and is tired of men who think that women are responsible of their own downfall. According to a research, 83% of us have already taken naked selfies. The problem is that we need a law that protects us when we're being abused.

Summary | Lambeth citizens are getting emojis on their tax correspondence with their local authorities. To be exact: crying face emojis. One resident tweeted her tax calculations with a crying face emoji next to het balance due. Many find this distasteful since many people struggle to pay their taxes and emojis are just inappropriate for government communication. Emojis are one of the fastest growing languages ever recorded in history and they have surpassed their precursors, Egyptian hieroglyphs, which took centuries to develop.
