Jailtime: for Teen Who Posted Nude Photo of His Ex-Girlfriend on MySpace & for Employee Caught with Illegal Porn

I’ve talked several times about some of the risks of using the social networking sites, such as here and here.
Here is an example of how others can post information about you on these sites that will continue to haunt you for years to come.


Two years ago the then 17-year-old boy posted a nude photo of his then 15-year-old girlfriend on her MySpace page. Now, two years later, he was sentenced to 30 days in jail for posting it.
It is likely that photo is now out on the Internet in many, many places.
These sites can be fun to use, but always remember that once you put something out on the Internet it is likely it will be out there until the Internet goes away.
And for goodness sake, *THINK* before allowing yourself to be photographed in ways you don’t want the world to see!!!!
Do you know if the people on your network are downloading these types of photos? Or even worse…illegal pornography? You don’t want to have your company making headlines like Disney did today; “Disney Employee Arrested on Child Porn Charges.”
This is one very horribly sick, demented young man. The story did not say the photos were found on Disney’s network, but Disney got the full brunt of bad publicity from the actions of one of their employees, even if he was on his own computer.
