Maid charged with child pornography highlights online dangers
A 28-year-old maid in Hong Kong has been jailed for three months after filming three kids naked in the shower. According to reports, the Indonesian domestic helper live-streamed them via Facebook live.
Indonesia Maid Jailed After Filming Children Naked
The maid has since been identified as Yuni Kristiani, an Indonesian domestic worker. In the live stream video, Yuni films a five-year-old boy bathing naked in a tub. It is obvious from the video that the boy does not want to be filmed.
When he asks if the camera is on, Yuni lies and says it is not. After this, she calls the two other children — seven-year-old fraternal twins — who then shower. She continues to live-stream the three bathing for 17 minutes.

Reports say the children's mum had given the maid specific instructions not to take photos or film the children without her approval.
After the video was streamed, a neighbour stumbled upon it on a Facebook page dedicated to domestic helper complaints.
Yuni was then arrested for publishing child pornography. The video has since been deleted.
In Hong Kong, the maximum sentence for such a crime is up to eight years imprisonment. Those found guilty will be fined about HK$2,000,000 (SG$334,934).
Yuni first reasoned that it was the children who filmed themselves. But she later pled guilty to accessing a computer with ill intentions.
How Can You Keep Kids Safe from Being Exploited Online?
Following the incident, the Indonesian consulate in Hong Kong came to the maid's defence. According to them, Yuni, who is also a mum of two, might not have intended to take the video "for pornographic purposes."
"There is a cultural difference between HK and Indonesia in expressing love to someone else's children. For example, hugging and kissing," explained the consulate to the BBC.
If, in fact, cultural differences were to blame, then employers need to take more time to educate foreign domestic workers.

Filming children naked might be an act with no malice in some parts of the world, but the internet is a dangerous place.
Regardless of what her intent was, the fact remains that she published naked children on the internet, where many predators lurk. She was putting them at risk.
To keep your kids safe, don't forget the following;
Make sure that you can trust those who are given the responsibility to care for them.
Always keep an eye on your maid's social media activity.
Let your kids know that they can tell you whenever their nanny or maid does something that makes them feel uncomfortable.
Educate kids about how the internet works. Once a post is shared publicly, anyone in the entire world can see it.
Empower them that they have the right to say "No" when people want to take photos or videos of them.
Yuni has since apologised to the family of the children. In the two years she was employed with them, she reportedly did her job well. They have since forgiven her for her actions.

You may remember that I blogged about my ugg-style boots back in January but as part of my research into other sheepskin boot alternatives, I found out that there is a British company making ethically sourced sheepskin boots in Cornwall. Emma from Celtic & Co got in touch with me shortly after I blogged about my other boots and told me about their Original Celt Boot, which is made from finest quality British sheepskin. It wasn't just the fact that these are made in Britain but these sheepskin boots are fashion with a clear conscience - the skins Celtic & Co use to manufacture their sheepskin footwear are predominantly from British sheep, with a very small proportion coming from Europe & they are always a by-product of the UK & European farming industry which operate within the highest regulations for animal welfare.
So I wore them today to Mount Stewart along with a bit of green for St Patrick's Day and I can vouch for their comfort and warmth. They also feel much more sturdy than my other boots - definitely better suited to day-time, outdoors wear. The shorter style is also more flattering to wear and perfect year round.
It was a lovely day down on the Ards Penninsula - really felt like spring and I couldn't believe how many flowers were out in full bloom. Mountstewart has it's own micro-climate so it is weeks ahead of most other gardens over here.
Love this shot of me and my Hello Kitty girls hanging out in the gardens..
Linking up today with Very Busy Mama for #realmomstyle. Do have a look on Maria-Jose's blog post to see all the other mums taking part and if you're a blogger, you can add your link too.
Oh and an #OperationFormalDress update - my gifted dress hasn't arrived yet and there's NO post today because it's a Bank Holiday over here - SOB. Fingers crossed it will arrive tomorrow. But thank you to everyone who has gotten in touch to offer dresses. Love you all!
Oooh love these boots. Navy is a much more flattering colour!
Love ur cosy & chic essemble(colorwise it's gr8 too:)!
Cute outfit I love the green trench and those jeans are great.
You look FAB! My friend has boots from this company and she raves about them.
Fab boots Avril & I love the colour of your mac teamed with navy.
Ye gotta love a navy boot especially a comfy one like those look! Loving the coat, very patriotic indeed, early went for a similar look myself today, I have the same jeans scarf and top and we almost went to Mountstewart- so that would have been a bit awkward!
Love those boots Avril, great colour and I like the fact they are ethically made, that is a big pull these days. Am I going mad I swear I commented on a glittery shoe post of yours?
That bright green coat is the perfect way to bring some color to a dreary rainy day! Love!
Love love those boots, will deffo have a look at them when I come to replace my uggs this year. Navy is so unusual. We would have boiled in them here though, can't believe the difference in the weather!
Fabulous picture of you and the girls!! You totally look amazing in green - sets off your hair color perfectly. I'm quite happy St. Patrick's is over I'm afraid - it's bedlam here - I'll never fully understand it!
Thank you for linkin in with Real Mom STyle.
Love these, buying local sheepskin option is not only great for the local economy, but often cheaper too because there is less of a brand name recognition markup.

Innovative experimental malaria drug based on antibodies discovered
Facebook Twitter Pinterest LinkedIn Reddit WhatsApp Email
A new study in Africa has found that a one-time dose of an experimental drug protects adults against malaria for at least six months. In 2020, malaria killed more than 620,000 people and sickened 241 million, mostly children under 5. There is a malaria vaccine being rolled out by the World Health Organization for children, but it is only 30% effective and requires four doses.
In this new study, people received a large dose of lab-made malaria-fighting antibodies instead of relying on the immune system to make enough of those same infection-blockers after vaccination, reported the Associated Press (AP). "There are not enough people protected by the vaccine available," said Kassoum Kayentao, a researcher from the University of Sciences, Techniques and Technologies in Bamako, Mali.
In those villages, people are bitten by infected mosquitoes on average twice a day during malaria season, according to other research. Experimental antibody, developed by researchers at the US National Institutes of Health, was delivered by IV. In the meantime, an easy-to-administer shot version from the same scientists is in early testing in infants, children, and adults.
Research presented at a medical meeting in Seattle was published Monday in the New England Journal of Medicine. In order to work, the antibody breaks the life cycle of the parasite, which is spread through mosquito bites. It targets immature parasites before they mature and multiply in the liver. An antibody taken from a volunteer who received a malaria vaccine was used to develop it.
It involved 330 adults in Mali who received either a dummy infusion or two different antibody doses. Every two weeks for 24 weeks, all were tested for malaria infection. Treatment was provided to anyone who became ill. A blood test detected infections in 20 people who received the higher dose, 39 people who received the lower dose, and 86 people who received the placebo. Compared to the placebo, the higher dose was 88% effective. There was a 75% effectiveness rate for the lower dose.
During a malaria season, protection might last for several months. In the future, it could be used in conjunction with other malaria prevention methods, such as malaria pills, mosquito nets, and vaccinations. According to one estimate, lab-made antibodies could be given for as little as $5 per child per malaria season.
