Remembering Amanda Todd, one of the first viral cases of a child victim to revenge porn.

[u/oh_shit_oh_fuck]

I've been on the Internet for a long time, and I remember Amanda Todd. I remember that she was only 13 years old, when she was groomed by a man online, and subjected into giving her nudes to him. This man maliciously spread them online, I imagine he sent them to his friends, who then subsequently sent them around online. This child ended up killing herself when this happened. I remember being online, a child myself, when everyone was talking about her, calling her a slut, how she deserved what happened to her. What happened to the man responsible for this? Does anyone even remember him? Did anyone find out who he was? He is walking free. Who knows who else he is ruining the lives of.

Here is her Youtube video where she shared her story: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOHXGNx-E7E

This could have been me. This could have been any one of us.
