Did you read the article? It states they created the images and were sharing them. This 'boys will be boys' mentality contributes to these things.

I'd need to see more to conclude harassment, i.e. proof of intent to cause psychological harm, versus teasing without any clue about the impacts of one's actions. > 'boys will be boys' mentality I don't think this is equivalent. This is immature kids playing with new technology and pushing the boundaries of decency with it. Without proof of intended malice, or evidence of actual harm, it's not a matter for criminal procedure.

  > proof of intent to cause psychological harm, versus teasing without any clue about the impacts of one's actions Teasing, whether you have a clue or not, is intent to cause psychological harm. > Without proof of intended malice, or evidence of actual harm, it's not a matter for criminal procedure. I concur. However I think it absolutely is grounds for a civil matter.

    > Teasing, whether you have a clue or not, is intent to cause psychological harm As someone who teased and was teased, was bullied and may have crossed into bullying, I disagree. The behaviours, when done with a group, are the seeking of social approval. The victim is closer to irrelevant than targeted. Where it crosses into bullying or harassment is where the victim is germane.

Fair enough. But this is like 1/100th of the transgression of spreading actual photos from gym class showers, which is a thing that happens quite a lot since everyone has a camera nowadays.

    You don't hide it. You take a camera and photograph some girl or guy far down in the pecking order. I guess the FBI might knock down my door soon after trying to Google for some report or stats about it. Just some random news articles. Maybe I overestimated the problem?
