N2  - Sexting is the term given to the sending of sexually explicit photographs over cell phones. Recent surveys suggest that anywhere from 20% to 39% of teenagers have engaged in sexting. Moreover, depending on which state you live in, sexting can result in civil lawsuits, criminal prosecution, and even required registration as a sex offender. In addition to potentially disastrous legal consequences, sexting has also resulted in ruined reputations and even suicide. This paper analyzes the only currently published federal case on the issue, as well as current and pending legislation being used to address this recent cultural phenomenon. © 2010 DreamCatchers Group, LLC.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
