“Private sex pictures spread on the övergreppssajter”
“Sexual images and videos of the young disseminated on the sites of the perpetrators are ever more frequently produced by young people themselves, according to Ecpat.”
“the Pictures may have been taken voluntarily, but have ended up in circulation and continues for several years later be published on web sites with sexual övergreppsmaterial on the children.”
” We are seeing more and more material that children and young people have taken on themselves in our hotline. The risk is that they end up on pages where there are perpetrators who exploit the images for their own purposes, ” says Anna Karin Hildingsson Boqvist, secretary-general of Ecpat.”
“Ecpats hotline identifies a suspected sexual exploitation of children online. More and more tips there about the material that the children produced themselves. It can be pictures and videos taken voluntarily, as a funny thing, and been sent to a boy – or girlfriend, but also to materials produced under threat and coercion.”
“no matter what, it becomes sexual exploitation when the image is shared without consent.”
“– the Problem is that children and young people can feel incredibly bad about the pictures spread out of control. The picture has been added by means of violence, threats or blackmail live the child in a constant fear of what the abuser can do with images, ” says Anna Karin Hildingsson Boqvist.”
“In a unique analysis of the 300 images and movies that have come out to Ecpats it operates, and that the children themselves produced, it turns out that the most common image is of a more or less undressed teenage girl who photographed herself with a cell phone in front of a mirror, either in their own rooms or in a bathroom.”
“this is The images that may have been circulating online for many years, and which is still widely published on new sites where the perpetrators are.”
“Many of the images and movies also depict one or more children, chatting with webcam, where the film is seen through the recipient’s view. Often it is a longer call with the element of the child shows itself stripped.”
“– The most common seems to be voluntary images, but it can be difficult to determine. We also look at some of the films and pictures that children cry or that it appears that someone on the other side gives instructions on what positions the child should have, for example, ” says Anna Karin Hildingsson Boqvist.”
“most young people can see the benefits of sharing nude pictures. It is seen as a way to flirt, to get confirmation and explore their sexuality. But many also experience regret and concern about what happens with the images and a sense of having lost control of the situation.”
“– Above all, it is about the feeling that the abuse does not end, and with that there are an infinity of how long this image can be on the network and where it can pop up says Ecpats secretary-general.”
“the Answer, however, is not to blame, prohibit or threaten that the child may not be on the network.”
“We need to talk with our children about what the hazards are so that the kids can make conscious choices on the web,” says Anna Karin Hildingsson Boqvist.”
“Ecpats most important advice to parents is:”
“Get knowledge of the child’s life on the net and do not judge.”
“Forbid not, or threaten that the child is not allowed to use the network.”
“Talk on the child’s conditions and listen to the point.”
“Relieve the child from the shame – it is never the child’s fault.”
“Report inappropriate content – so that the material can be taken down.”
“Polisanmäl when a crime is suspected.”

“It is not illegal to save these images.”
“However, there can be no question of a crime if you distribute a picture on who does not imagine himself without consent.”
“Both the spreading and the receiving and viewing, or possessing, the image can then be considered to have committed child pornography.”
“To spread a pure fantasy to conclude or movie on any may also constitute slander or unlawful invasion of privacy.”
