Summary | The author says that she teaches her daughter that the internet does not forget and that female nudity rarely benefits the nude woman in the long run. However, there seem to be contradicting cases. Women's and men's careers have been both destroyed and boosted by the leaking of nude images, sexting selfies, or revenge porn. Most recently, Donald Trump has been caught first defending his wife's honor and accusing Ted Cruz of posting nude footage of her modeling days to then later post images of his wife and Cruz's wife to make the point that his wife is hotter.

Im Gefühlsextremismus
(In the middle of emotional extremism)

Topic Tags | cyberbullying, pornography, privacy, sexting, social media, threat
Summary | Social media have messed with our sense of privacy. Celebrities can now address their fans from a seemingly private realm of self-orchestrated social media presence and regular people can become famous very quickly when they embarrass themselves enough on social media. Additionally, one can be made famous on social media by cyberbullies and previous partners by sharing "revenge porn" (nudes shared during a romantic relationship) after a breakup. The general tenor on all social media sites entails schadenfreude (rejoicing over other people's misfortune) - whether it be directed towards celebrities' faux-pas or normal people.

Topic Tags | cyberbullying, Facebook, pornography, sexting, threat
Summary | Facebook have begun implementing new ways to combat the sharing of revenge porn on their platform. These changes stem from roundtable discussions with women's safety organizations. Revenge porn, the sharing of intimate photographs without permission after a breakup (or similar), is becoming increasingly frequent. Facebook can now take down such images very quickly once they're reported and keep users from sharing such images again.

Porn is now part of everyday life, say teenagers: Sexting is part of everyday life, say half of 18-year-olds
Newspaper | The Independent

Country | UK
Topic Tags | pornography, sexting, threat, youth
Summary | 'Sexting' is only used in headline. Pornography is ubiqutous online. This is a huge problem because teenagers could receive the most part of their sexual education from pornography. This would likely lead boys to objectifying girls and girls to thinking that their value lies in their conforming to the body standards set by pornography. Teenagers need to be protected from unsolicited explicit material online and sex education should be improved.

Summary | Scotland's government along with several prominent companies and personalities are trying to raise awareness about educating children about internet safety. Only few parents discuss problems of online safety such as pornography or sexting with their children. Most importantly, youths should be taught about what they can do when they encounter content online that upsets them, that they can approach an adult, various help organizations available, or report inappropriate content.

'Ripped from the cloud'; The celebrities whose images were stolen by hackers never meant to make them public and now have no control over their use.

Topic Tags | pornography, privacy, sexting, threat, Twitter
Summary | Recently Apple's iCloud was hacked and nude photographs of many female celebrities (Jennifer Lawrence, Kirsten Dunst, ...) were publicly shared online. This attack on celebrity's personal privacy is compared to the Swiss scandal secretary who tweeted nude images of herself at her workplace. While the celebrity nude image leak is seen as vile abuse, the Swiss secretary's misfortune is seen as her own fault. It is naïve to expect to be able to keep a Twitter account with 11'000 followers secret from one's employer.

The graphic selfies from inside the Swiss parliament

Topic Tags | politics, pornography, sexting, WhatsApp
Summary | Switzerland saw two nude selfie scandals in and around politics this summer. A secretary working in the parlamentarian offices had been tweeting nude selfies taken on the premises. Parlamentarian and city mayor of Baden in Switzerland, Geri Müller, had been sexting with an online friend via WhatsApp, including an abundance of written messages and nude selfies. The Swiss public had been debating whether Müller's #selfiegate should have been newsworthy at all. What ultimately emerges is a double standard: the secretary lost her job within days and the mayor is still representing the Swiss people in parliament.
