Well it's the 2020's and social media rules in these students "brains".

Isn't Instagram owned by Zuckerburg.

Yes it is. That’s why nothing is done about the problem.

This is how DC operates, so I guess they’re branching out.

The scammers are getting more creative.

For roughly one year, I have been getting junk email from alleged hackers who claim they have hijacked my computer and its camera.

For just a few hundred dollars in Bitcoin, they promise to return control of my computer, and they vow never to reveal any of the kinky things I do in my apartment or watch on the Web.

Since almost all teenagers have a guilty conscience about something, I will guess the alleged hackers have a much higher success ratio with the youngsters than they have with old men like me.

With AI sextortion can be used against anyone, even virgins. All you have to have done is put a pic of yourself on internet. With AI that face can be seamlessly put on a body in a sex scene.

A really good idea is to not take naked photos of yourself...

Anybody stupid enough to let anyone have sexually explicit material deserves to be in the sextortion arena.

Stupidity has no limits.

Over time, AI will be the scammers’ undoing and put them out of business. Victims, whether it’s really them or not, need only claim to the world “It’s fake! It’s AI!”. Just this morning, I saw a photo realistic AI image of Trump and Biden smiling and chatting on a park bench. AI video with audio is really gonna do major damage to society, eventually.

99.999% of these scams can be avoided with basic common sense. Don’t sign up for a sex site. Never send naked or revealing pictures of yourself. Even a teenager should understand that. And most tech-savvy teens should understand that these scams exist.
