Online child sexual exploitation encompasses child sexual abuse material (CSAM), youth generated sexual images (sexting), sextortion, made-to-order content, and live child sexual streaming. The common thread is often that the minors are being forced to produce and/or have their explicit images distributed and as such, they suffer irreparable long-term harm.

step 1. You will need two cases that focus on child victims. For the first case,useU.S. v. Jason Paul White,5:21-cr-00011-H-BQ,which prosecuted online child sex abuse material offenses.Please review it. For thesecond case, select one of the cyber sextortion casesmentioned in Table 10.3 (Shapiro, 2023j) that focused on child victim(s) and specifies under "acts"blackmailed/ forced the child(ren) to send sexual picturesand under "charges and sentencing" states the penalty.Be sure to look up this case to find additional details.Name the 2nd case you wish to use by name__________(e.g.,U.S. v. David Ackell).

step 2. Answer each of these items using the required citations:

Item 1. Specify 1-2harms(e.g., mental anguish) caused to these minor victim(s) in each case.Do you believe that the penalties applied were just and likely to deter sexual cyber predators from future offending?You must cite both chapters: Shapiro (2023i, 2023j). Do not provide info on methods or motives.

Item 2. Based on your understanding of these two cases,what cybersecurity strategies would you provide parents regarding the dangers of sexual cyber predators who use grooming and luring for the purpose of sexually exploiting minors?Be sure to tailor your advice to the specifics of the cases rather than generic advice. You must cite both chapters: Shapiro (2023i, 2023j).
