I'll bite:<p><i>There have now been several cases across the country where young people who either pose for, snap, or forward provocative or nude photos of other minors are being charged or threatened with felony child pornography.</i><p>In the case of forwarding provocative or nude photos, I can see situations where that could be done with malicious intent and really harm someone.  Depending upon the details of the case, I would be okay with throwing the book at someone for distributing photos that were never intended to be made public and which caused significant harm.  I have heard of a case of Internet harassment that led to suicide or murder.  So I think potential for real harm should not be laughed off entirely.<p>Nonetheless, most of what I have read about teen sexting cases sounds completely insane.
