Sexy Cellulars

Ah, technology. Its allowed us to do many good things, like the personal computer, or portable telephones. And speaking of that last one, did you know that these phones can have cameras built into them? And that, just like every other camera ever made, they will take pictures of anything you put in front of them? Did you also know that since the camera is built into a phone, you can send the pictures wirelessly to other people, and even websites? Are you sick of these run on questions? Me too, phew. Anyways, a new trend has emerged where people, and more importantly teens, are sending racy, or even nude pictures of themselves to other people or websites (now deemed sexting). This is causing an uproar, especially with the involved parents. And so, now you have to figure out whether/where the child porn laws kick in. Ars Technica has a great article on this, and whether or not you typically like the law side of the tech world, this whole debacle will surely affect your life, so you may want to pay attention.
