I was contacted by the reporter too and I commented as a Linux Sysadmin
at La Sentinelle. I spoke briefly about the hostility of the internet
and the need for parental control for minors. That's all.
In recent times, we have seen more cases of sextortion being reported in
the press. Do we have any stats on such cyber crimes? The different
types of "arnaques" that exist on the web should be covered, though we
cannot cover all possible scenarios. Phishing is another important type
of crime that made victims recently.
