This is worthy of a “What the Spank” (WTS) salute. This is the story of male teenager using FB to blackmail other young boys into having sex with him. The leverage he used was generated from nude photos that were sexted to him by other boys while he masqueraded as a girl on Facebook. Like all things, technology can be used for all sorts of evil.
One lesson here (and there are others) is that we need to consider technology as it is developed (or as it comes of the self) to ascertain if a legitimate need is driving it or is the technology actually creating the need. Plato taught us that "necessity is the mother of all invention." However, today we seem to have lost this bit of wisdom. Too often we create new needs from technology that was developed for one reason or simply created because it could be made. In other words, invention becomes the mother of necessity.
