There was a story in today’s Metro about Tesco making a mistake and putting porn on a kid’s phone. But this intrepid reporter read between the lines to bring you this story:-
A 14 year old boy got caught by his mom with porn on his mobile. The video clips especially “were so rude and you could see absolutely everything that was going on”. So atleast the kid knew where to get the proper stuff from, and wasn’t ripped off like I, I mean, my friend was. The boy, in a stroke of genius that, quite frankly, had me applauding, managed to point his greasy finger at Tesco’s and saved his spotty little hide. His mom felt that “a piece of his innocence has been taken away”. I agree the innocence has gone, but I’m betting it was less taken, and more voluntarily offered away.
On another, rather sadder, note: A young girl apparently committed suicide after being influenced by websites that talked about it. Basically that’s what I understood from the headlines, and I’ll be buggered sideways if I’m gonna read it for you lazy bums. Here’s the link. I’ve never seen an ‘Internet suicide site’, is it the Internet committing suicide, or are the visitors virtually dying when they get there (see what I did there?). I’m assuming as long as you make a backup copy you’ll be ok.
