Should This Be Made A Criminal Matter...?

Should the law be getting involved in what is basically a domestic?

I'm with 3Ts 100% on this.

If anyone is daft enough to allow somebody elsee to take compromising photos of them they need their bumps felt. When these cases are highlighted the failed "relationship" is often not very long standing and it shows a singular lack of sound judgement allowing somebody you hardly know to take such photos.

Domestic Violence (proper) is a serious problem which needs all the resources available to tackle it. This is just plain daft. It's daft to place yourself in such a vulnerable position and equally daft to use the images in such a way. A story last week suggested that around 50% of complaints to police involve so-called "social network" abuses and huge amounts of police time is being spent investigating them. People need to grow up a bit and rejoin the real world.

NJ....teenagers are doing it. They are not quite at the age where they consider the consequences.

Then they must learn the hard way, ummm. There is no reason why valuable police resources should be used to combat teenage stupidity. That is what parents and schools are for.

Oh, okay, screw up a teenagers life for a stupid thoughtless mistake, I mean....gosh, none of us made mistakes!!

We live in different times now.

Too much police time is wasted on social media squabbles

Laws are already in place to deal with 'revenge porn' but once an image goes online it can resurface at any time, from anywhere in the world.

ummm, a teenager's life could be screwed up forever if he (or she) acted stupidly and posted intimate photos of the ex online and got a criminal record.

[ummmm]

Either way.
