Cette affaire, qui vient d'éclater, a débuté voilà six mois dans le secteur de Clermont-l'Hérault. Le mis en cause, 46 ans, responsable de maintenance, a branché à son insu la webcam de l'ordinateur de la victime, âgée de 15 ans, avec laquelle il vit en compagnie de la mère de cette dernière. Il a ainsi capté des images de l'adolescente nue, la caméra se trouvant dans sa chambre."

A stepfather places a webcam in his 15 year-old stepdaughter's room, then befriends her on Facebook under "fake profiles" and threatens her to reveal the videos to her parents lest she has sex with him. Yet another confirmation that sexual violence is most often perpetrated by people known to the victim.

How Google Dominates Us August 18, 2011 James Gleick "This much is clear: We need to decide what we want from Google. If only we can make up our collective minds. Then we still might not get it. The company always says users can "opt out" of many of its forms of data collection, which is true, up to a point, for savvy computer users; and the company speaks of privacy in terms of "trade-offs," to which Vaidhyanathan objects: Privacy is not something that can be counted, divided, or "traded." It is not a substance or collection of data points. It's just a word that we clumsily use to stand in for a wide array of values and practices that influence how we manage our reputations in various contexts. There is no formula for assessing it: I can't give Google three of my privacy points in exchange for 10 percent better service. This seems right to me, if we add that privacy involves not just managing our reputation but protecting the inner life we may not want to share. In any case, we continue to make precisely the kinds of trades that Vaidhyanathan says are impossible. Do we want to be addressed as individuals or as neurons in the world brain? We get better search results and we see more appropriate advertising when we let Google know who we are. And we save a few keystrokes."
