Thinking about sexting?
You may have been tempted in the past to send naked pictures or videos of yourself, perhaps to a friend’s mobile, on a web cam, or on social media.
Some people call this sexting, cybersex or sending a nudes. This makes it sound exciting and fun. It can feel really private too.
But sexting is never private. All images can be saved or screengrabbed by the person receiving it even if you think you are using a private network or a temporary message app like Snapchat.
Once a photo is shared online, you have lost all control of it and it will be virtually impossible for you undo. Even if you change your mind and delete the photo you uploaded, other people may have already shared or copied the image. This puts you at risk of abuse or exploitation by others.
