Camera Phones: "The new terror weapon for mobbers"

One of my readers kindly sent me this information. Swedish daily newspaper Expressen published an article Dec lst, describing camera phones as "the new terror weapon for mobbers" (meaning bullies? I tried Babel Fishing this page, but there is no option for translating Swedish into English)

Apparently, several 13 year old students were photographed in the shower by class mates and they feared the pictures would be published on the Internet.

A letter was sent to all parents asking them to forbid their kids from bringing phones to school.
