Hackers claim to identify second individual ‘involved’ with Amanda Todd cyber stalking

By Stephen C. Webster

Nameless hackers with the online protest group “Anonymous” said Tuesday night that they’ve identified another individual connected to a pornographic photo of a 15-year-old Canadian teen who committed suicide after publishing an anti-bullying video that went viral.

...

As before, Raw Story has chosen not to name the man after information provided by hackers earlier this week [highlight]turned out to be wrong[/highlight]]. Additionally, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) cautioned in a statement Tuesday night that there’s no solid evidence linking the first man Anonymous named to Todd’s death.

Hackers claim to identify second individual ‘involved’ with Amanda Todd cyber stalking | The Raw Story



As everyone should know by now, the guy's actions are far removed from Amanda Todd's decision to kill herself, and should not be held to any degree of responsibility in her own actions. Especially criminally.

But this is not about that aspect, it is about the hackers.

They ought to be ashamed of trying to place responsibility on anybody other than Amanda Todd for her killing herself, and then singling him out.
Truly pathetic of them.

They got the first identification wrong as reported above, what makes anyone think they got this one right?
I would feel mighty stupid had I believed them the first time.
 
Re: Hackers claim to identify second individual ‘involved’ with Amanda Todd cyber sta

Wow!
No one is upset with the hackers.
Figures!

Lawlessness rules the day.

Wouldn't worry too much about a group that infiltrates when there's an infiltration inside Anonymous
 
Re: Hackers claim to identify second individual ‘involved’ with Amanda Todd cyber sta

Extortion, threats, and distribution of child pornography are all crimes the asshole is likely guilty of. Not going after him at all would be no better than going after him for the girl's death.

I agree with most of this; I don't support vigilante justice. But the bolded part makes me go WTF? Why *shouldn't* the bullies feel responsible for her killing herself? It is their fault, and hopefully the people who did this feel terrible.

Let's just say that I'm as overwhelmed with sympathy for the people that tormented Amanda Todd as you are for Amanda Todd.

You do not know any of that.
Secondly, it is law enforcements duty, not some group of vigilante law breakers.
That should be the point that every one agrees on.

No, it is not their fault. She got her feeling hurt and was unable to cope with it. That is all on her.

But I have no problem if they feel sorry or remorseful for their action which were wrong.

Really?

How would you know what I feel for Amanda Todd since I have never said anything about my feelings.


Or are you like the rest of the emotional that think saying she is responsible for her actions (which she is), is somehow unsympathetic (which it is not).
Do you fall into that illogical group too?

Re: Hackers claim to identify second individual ‘involved’ with Amanda Todd cyber sta

The more I look at the above pic, the more I am convinced that it wasn't "real" cutting on her part, but just merely scratching the surface.
Which just lends more credibility to her being an attention whore and unstable.


But in all seriousness folks, your priorities are backwards.

Lol, you expect us to believe that you give two ****s about the kid on the right? Our priorities are backwards? Unlike you, most of us do not have any kind of fun bashing a dead kid.

Fun bashing a dead kid? Clearly you seemed to be confused.

And you don't? :shock:

Bullying is a problem, no matter how much attention MSM gives it.

I'm not confused at all. It's obvious. The real irony is you accusing anyone else of being an attention whore.

I don't what? Unlike Excon over there I don't revel in any kid that commits suicide for being bullied.

I heard a CBC broadcast about this. Apparently this isn't an instance of hacking or cyber bullying; it's something called capping.

Screen capping is where criminals use the net to coerce young girls in to stripping, subsequently taking screen captures of them doing so. The resulting images are used to blackmail these young girls. According to the broadcast, this is an autonomous culture(much like autonomous, ALF, or ELF) that's "hiding in plain sight".

I prompt you to go on youtube and look up "the daily capper". It's a kids show dubbed over and turned in to a news broadcast about capping - I checked, there's still some of them uploaded. I've never actually seen the show, but it basically outlines the activities cappers engage in.

Let me make this clear: I don't condone the posting of that image, but your comment was still wildly inappropriate.

How about you post the one you want viewed.

Are you seriously trying to convince people now that you have any sort of sense of compassion? Sorry Dude, that ship has sailed.

What are you talking about? Which comment?

I haven't made fun of her, so your dishonesty is noted.
And saying that she is responsible for her own death (which she is), is neither unsympathetic or compassionless. Saying such is ridiculous.
 
Re: Hackers claim to identify second individual ‘involved’ with Amanda Todd cyber sta

The show? No. From what I know, they detail the mass occurrence of illegal activities. I could get in some serious trouble for posting one.

Further, I do not want these videos viewed. I referenced them to explain that the culture of screen capping isn't that hard to come across.

I have seen two since you brought it up. Nothing that would get anyone in trouble. And not at all interesting.

I would suggest you watch some if you are not familiar with them. That is if you are trying to use them as some sort of point. If you are not, that's ok.

Right, what was I thinking, calling her an unstable attention whore just oozes compassion. I'm sure her family would be moved by your kind words.
