Although in the State of New York, the age of consent is seventeen, there is something called the "Age of Majority" (website reference below) meaning at what point a person in that state is LEGALLY considered an "adult" which means the seventeen year old is considered a juvenile. I REALLY...

What if I can't get someone to reveal the information on the site for me? To proceed with anything, you need evidence in which you can point to for both a) a cease and desist better, and for b) a subpoena. Basically once you have one piece of information, think of it as a strand on a blanket...

If you're fortunate enough to find a person who is willing to provide information to you about the group (ie: the owners name), you're able to serve him or her with the cease and desist letter which will lay out what legal action you're willing to take if he or she does not delete the group...

Would I be able to contact Facebook to verify the existence of the group? It's worth a try, however it's hard for me to say whether facebook would be a) willing to, or b) able to verify any group without knowing who the creator of the group is. Also would a lawyer be able to send some type of...

Since it's online, it's in writing ie libel ("a false and malicious publication printed for the purpose of defaming a living person"). In order to prove libel you must in fact prove that a statement is false and malicious, and that it was posted in order to defame you. A libel or slander suit...

While this is an actual case of child pornography, for this question I will refer to the website as "the blog", as I intend to report this website for hosting child pornography. However, I wanted clarification as to what, if any, responsibility the blog's owner(s) have to his or her website...

.. also, it's not up to the grandparent as to when the child should go without the supervision, it's up to the parent.

Yes, let's all let our pre-pubescent twelve year old children walk around without adult supervision - worked great here. Next, you'll be advocating for them to have drivers licenses, too. Give me a break.

Marble, you're the one who made the mistake in sending the pictures - sometimes it's best to own up to the mistake, it might save yourself a lot of trouble. To be honest, there really is nothing you can do. Welcome to the age of the internet. Laws haven't caught up with technology. But good...

The change did not put the person in potential financial or personal harm. I did not access a system that I did not legally have access to.

You paid "something", or the full amount? A verbal agreement can be treated just like a written one.

If you were to retain a lawyer, the recourse would be to sue for libel, which is hard to prove. Providing the pictures to him and admitting such might be a cause for concern as it's a somewhat self-incriminating statement. Right now you're probably feeling a lot of shame, which you should be...

My first question is why did you allow your 12 year old daughter to go anywhere alone. Secondly, arresting her may have been a little extreme seeing as she is quite young, this would serve as a "lesson learned", not a cause for an arrest.

If you're under the age of eighteen, it's best to involve your mom. If you're older and know nothing, tell them that and refer them to speak to your mother. Cooperation is key with law enforcement HOWEVER make sure not to divulge any information that may lead to either your mom or yourself with...

What fallout would come from an original domain name holder revising the whois information of his or her website to reflect falsely that another person is the true owner of the website (ie: name, address, etc.) causing that person to contact the registrar, obtain physical ownership of said...
