I don't know if you've heard of a "black hand" called "indecency," which is a new type of crime that is parasitic on the Internet, and it's also a crime committed against minors
In order to satisfy deformed desires, criminals use the Internet to deceive, threaten and other means to molest minors in a non-contact manner in the virtual space, causing great harm to the victims' physical, mental and family members
Article 9, paragraph 1 of the "Supreme People's Court and Supreme People's Procuratorate Interpretation on Several Issues Concerning the Application of Law in Handling Criminal Cases of Rape and Indecency with Minors" provides that where minors are coerced or tricked into exposing their private body parts or committing obscene acts through online video chats or sending videos or photos, and the provisions of Criminal Law article 237 are met, they are to be convicted and punished as the crime of compulsory indecency or child molestation.
"Indecency in the air" has the following characteristics:
Concealment and deception
The criminal act of "indecency with children" does not have direct physical contact with children, and criminals often "specially advise" children to be carried out in a separate and closed room for some reason in advance, and the children do not realize that they have been violated in a short period of time.
The means of committing crimes are diverse
Criminals often deceive the trust of the victim children through high-paying part-time jobs, recruiting child stars, impersonating doctors for physical examinations, making friends, etc., and then carry out specific indecent acts after forming psychological control over the violated children.
Lasts longer
Due to its strong concealment, criminal behavior is often not easily detected by parents, so the duration of criminal behavior tends to be longer. Judging from the judicial cases reported by the Supreme People's Court, cases of "indecency with children in the air" last for a minimum of a few days and as long as five years.
Huge Hazard
The crime of "indecency in the air" relies on internet platforms, and most criminals will store relevant images and videos in the process of committing indecency, and even carry out secondary processing and spread to the outside world, causing lasting harm to the violated children.
Let's take a look at the usual methods of lawbreakers and criminals:
One
A man on a short video platform on the grounds of being a target
Successively added a number of underage women as friends
Gain trust through rhetoric
Or use a few yuan red envelopes to trick the other party
Take intimate video photos to satisfy lust
Several videos of minors being exposed will be stored on their phones
Some are even posted online
Two
A man was found to have been browsing pornographic websites for a long time
Produce a perverted mentality
Asking for nude photos of adult women on a short video platform
After that, it will target underage women
By impersonating women of the same age, etc
Add WeChat friends asking for nudes and selfie videos
Or trick the other party into video naked chat with them and use their mobile phone to record the screen
The methods of criminals are not sophisticated or sophisticated, but due to the strong curiosity of minors, lack of self-protection awareness, and weak ability to discern harm, they are very susceptible to hints and temptations.
In the work of the police, it was found that after being violated, minors did not dare to take the initiative to tell their parents or call the police out of fear; After learning about it, some parents not only severely criticized their children, but also deliberately concealed relevant evidence and were unwilling to assist the police in carrying out investigations, which also indirectly led to the criminals committing crimes continuously without being discovered by the police.

1
Parents should pay attention to their children's daily online habits, browsing content, social activities, etc.; It is necessary to pay attention to the cultivation of children's network security prevention ability, and educate children on how to identify and handle negative online information.

Q
What should I do if I encounter "indecency in the air"?
1
Educate children not to believe the rhetoric and online scam information of netizens; Do not disclose personal information and private images of yourself and your family, and turn off location signs; Do not meet with strange netizens, and refuse to send any photos and videos of yourself; In case of illegal infringement, learn to keep evidence, such as chat records, pictures, videos, etc., and tell your parents what you have encountered in a timely manner.
2
After parents find that their children have been violated, they should not blindly criticize and blame, but should promptly report to the public security organs for help, and actively assist in providing relevant evidence materials to provide support for the police's crackdown work. At the same time, it is necessary to do a good job of comforting, caring and enlightening education to help children get out of the shadows and minimize the damage.
The most important thing is to be brave enough to take up the weapon of the law to protect yourself in the face of illegal infringement!
Finally, the police are warning lawbreakers, the Internet is not a place outside the law, and the police will resolutely crack down on all illegal crimes against minors in accordance with the law
