Camera Phone Reviews

Guardian Unlimited is reporting that kids are using their camera phones to bully each other around. Taking snap shots at embarrassing times and threatening to send them to others. One of the worst cases was when a boy sent out intimate pictures of his girlfriend in a school uniform to two friends. The police said it reached 10,000 people.

"The survey, commissioned by NCH and Tesco Mobile from pollsters BMRB, asked 770 young people whether they had been bullied or threatened by anyone using emails, internet chatrooms or texts.

One in five said they had, with 14% experiencing bullying by text message, 5% in internet chatrooms and 4% via email. The figures were slightly lower than an NCH poll in 2002, which first identified the extent of bullying by text, prompting the former education secretary Estelle Morris to alert teachers to the dangers."
