http://torrentfreak.com/men-tried-for-extortion-after-porn-download-threats-150124/Few people want their adult content viewing habits to be made public so the chances of targets paying up following an unauthorized download are anecdotally higher than for regular entertainment content. Out to make as much money as possible, this assumption wasn’t lost on a group of adult business ‘entrepreneurs’ based in Sweden.
Operating out of the region of Skåne, two years ago the individuals began sending threatening communications to people they claimed had downloaded pornographic content from sites without permission. The websites in question were all operated by the men. In total around 4,000 people all over Sweden received ‘invoices’ for alleged illegal downloads. Each were warned that if they failed to pay the amounts stipulated they would be reported to the police and their activities made public.
While some people paid, others decided to take action. According to SR.se, police received 1,000 complaints from members of the public ranging from 10-year-old children to pensioners. After an investigation the police began to view the case as criminally motivated. As a result this week six men went on trial in the Malmö district court accused of generating around $240,000 via extortion and blackmail. I wonder how many times has this scam been used. I bet this is not the first time, only the first case to reach trial. And before people start posting about it's their fault for having watched porn let me leave this here: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-...d-material.htmlScientists studying the effects of pornography fell at the first hurdle - after failing to find a man who had not viewed X-rated material. The researchers were comparing the views of men in their 20s who had never been exposed to pornography to regular users. But Professor Simon Louis Lajeunesse, of Montreal University in Canada, said: 'We started our research seeking men who had never consumed pornography. We couldn't find any.'

There is another extortion racket going on.
Guys get females to do compromising selfies and then threaten to go public with the selfie if they don't pay up.
There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB. The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed. There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.

Ugh, people are terrible. A couple of the frats at NC State recently started competitions where girls could send nude snapchats, and the "winners" would get student tickets to some of the more highly anticipated football or basketball games. And it was pretty well known that the d-bags were downloading and saving the pictures.

There's a real simple solution to this problem.
Don't take the bloody picture to begin with.

I guess the Army is the only place where masturbation and porn habits are a totally normal conversation. I can't tell you how many guys have came and asked me about trading porn with them while we are out in hell. They'll be disappointed, I'm not a huge connoisseur of porn.

I'm disappointed in you Timothy. You're certainly not following the trail we older soldiers blazed for you.
Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.
Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

I'm disappointed in you Timothy. You're certainly not following the trail we older soldiers blazed for you. It's tough trying to live my faith and not give into my carnal desires. That said, what I do have is quality. One of the guys going is taking a 3TB drive filled with it. I'm sure you can tell everyone how no one bats an eye when you are in the field and you get up and state you are going to rub one out. It's funny when guys complain that they want to, but their phone/laptop battery is dead and there isn't a power outlet for miles.

Now there is a business opportunity, all we need to do is devise a charger that uses the "wrist action" to charge the mobile device - it's a winner... Gimme a couple weeks and I'll see what I can come up with for a prototype.

You mean like those shake flashlights? I think it's called a Fleshlight. There was a documentary on TV at the weekend about the woman that donated her "shape" to make the Fleshlight. It was not family friendly viewing so my 18yo lad didn't get to watch it and neither did I, I had never heard of it before!

I saw that online. The model went to the factory where the fleshlights were being made with the company owner. The reporter asked him if he had ever tried his own product to which he said of course, he always tests his products before marketing them to insure the quality is up to his high standards. The model was standing right next to him and she looked like she was going to die of embarrassment!
