Journal revised #2 "Digital Child Abuse"



This TED Talk was presented by Sebastian Bortnik; he first starts this talk by showing a Facebook profile account from a girl name Nina Rodriguez. Nina was a 24-year-old man that had three different Facebook profiles with 890 kids between the ages of 8 and 13 years old. Another example is a 26-year-old Jonathan Luna that killed 12 years old Micaela Ortega because when they meet, she refuses to have sex with him. They met through Facebook, and Jonathan was under the profile name of Rochi de River a 12-year-old. 

Sebastian also gives an example of how an 11-year-old girl became a victim of grooming. A man manipulated the girl to masturbate herself in front of the webcam and recorder it. 

He talks about parents giving their kids total access to the Internet and their parents are not aware of the danger that their children might be in. He wants to make sure that we all are aware that our children can be at high risk of being abused by a pedophile while we are there and not paying attention to what our kids are doing. 

Sebastian did a survey in his country (Argentina) in 2016, and it shows that 15 percent of schools knew of cases of grooming in their school. Online safely needs to be a conversation topic in every house and every classroom in the country. 

Sebastian Bortnik backs up his evidence by using his own experiences, throughout his 
work. Sebastian Bornik is the president of Argentina cybersecurity. Over ten years ago he’s been 
investigating and educating about cyber in Argentina. Sebastian Bortnik encourages Parents 
and adults have a duty to teach, educate and protect children from this new technological world 
and predators that deceive children to rob them from their innocent and destroy them just for 
their sexual pleasure.
