What do you think of this? Is it harmless, or does it further sexualize female infants?


Pee Wee Pumps: High heels for babies spark outrage

A US footwear company has sparked outrage among consumers and campaign groups over a range of high heeled shoes for babies.

Pee Wee Pumps, which makes soft shoes for infants, describes its products as "cool" and "diva defining".

But pictures of the fashion range posted online have led to criticism on social media sites.

The shoes, which have collapsible heels and pointed toes, are available for infants up to six months old.

In the latest post on the company's Facebook page, an infant in heels sits astride a miniature motorbike with the caption: "This little #Diva, defining cool posing in her #PeeWeePumps."

The image was criticised by a number the site's users, who suggested it was "wrong" and "disgusting" to portray young children in such a way.

"This is not ok," wrote Melissa Balinski.

Another commenter, Jen, said that "promoting products for babies this way is just sick".

Other promotional images for Pee Wee Pumps products include babies wearing bead necklaces, sequin dresses and tutus.

The range of shoes, which features styles made from red satin and leopard-skin material, have repeatedly met mixed responses from Facebook users.

"I will definitely avoid this brand," wrote Barrow, commenting on a picture of a baby in "black pump classics". "This is horrid," added Flory.

But some users left positive comments, remarking how the shoes made the infants "look adorable". "Too cute," wrote Latoyia.

The Pee Wee Pumps website displays a range of designs, labelled "Swanky", "Wild Child" and "Diva".

"She'll make a statement in this bold, red hue," reads the product description alongside a design labelled "Sassy".

The company came under fire earlier this month from UK campaign group Let Clothes Be Clothes, which posted images of the product range for infants with the warning "beware, the photos are shocking".

"I will definitely avoid this brand," wrote Owen. "That's disturbing. Even without the heels the pics would be not even remotely okay," wrote Eva.

Another user, Natasha, added to the campaign group's post: "Should be banned."

Pee Wee Pumps is based in Greensburg, Pennsylvania. The founder, Michele Holbrook, wrote in a statement on the company website that her products "are not intended for walking, but rather to meet the current and ever-growing popular demand for 'high-fashion' in infant apparel".

Very true. But LE can still monitor their texts, phone calls and emails to connect the dots.

No one is safe in this modern world of total and complete surveillance.

Here's a story out of Connecticut about some older men involved in human trafficking. They trafficked vulnerable young men.
http://wtnh.com/2017/03/30/arrests-made-in-danbury-human-trafficking-ring/
.

According to the arrest warrant, Robert King, going back approximately 20 years, sought out young men with varying degrees of psychological disabilities for the purpose of using these individuals for prostitution. The arrest warrant goes on to say King would fraudulently befriend the young males. He would offer them work, food, money, and other fake inducements, as well as providing them with illegal drugs to the point that they were financially indebted to him.
Mental health and addiction issues make many men and women vulnerable to being preyed on by pimps, traffickers and pedophiles.

I consulted with Andrew Aguilar (I have permission to post his name) in Vancouver several years ago. It cost me a lot of money but was worth every penny. http://blog.stpub.com/bid/198572/New-Anti-Spam-Laws-Affect-Virtually-Every-Business-in-Canada

He works as counsel for the city of Vancouver now, but he might know other lawyers that specialize in Internet Defamation Law if anyone is desperately in need of help.

He gave me a copy of a Cease and Desist letter he'd prepared for a big corporation, so I could use it as a template. He's the one who helped me find a solution for our industry where confidentiality is such a big issue.

He taught me that you can send Cease and Desist letters to online handles at their email addresses, so no real names or personal info is required.

I still remember lying in bed in my hotel room later that night after my first consultation with him - and this big lightbulb went off in my head when I realized that it would work for us.

:)

Any good TO area lawyers out there who are knowledgable about Internet Defamation Law?

Please PM me if you know of any.
Not sure. It was a part of my subscription to a type of law newsletter. I will see if I can find it, but the hard copy might be buried in one of my binders. Must check.

Europe becomes 'hub' for child sexual abuse content
3 April 2017

Europe is becoming the global hub for the hosting of child sexual abuse images and videos, suggests a report.

The annual report by the Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) found that 60% of worldwide abuse material was now in Europe - an increase of 19%.

The Netherlands topped the list of European nations hosting the illegal content, said the IWF.

Improved reporting and policing by ISPs in North America are believed to have driven the shift.

"The situation is reversed from previous years," said Susie Hargreaves, chief executive of the IWF. "Europe is now the biggest host of child sexual abuse imagery, rather than North America."

The IWF is the UK body that acts to find and remove abuse content from UK networks.

Escalating demand

In 2015, about 57% of the web pages containing abuse content could be found in North America, according to the IWF figures. In 2016, this had dropped to 37% with the majority now in Europe.

The IWF report said about 34,212 web pages were found to be displaying abuse content in Europe - which also includes Russia and Turkey.

Ms Hargreaves said the shift "could reflect the great work taking place by the US industry to tackle the problem" that had forced criminals to look elsewhere for hosts that would let them upload and share content.

The change was a "remarkable indication" of the work being done by US ISPs to identify, remove and report the content, said John Shehan, vice-president of the exploited children division of the US National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC).

American laws requiring ISPs to inform the authorities when images were found on their networks had driven a steep rise in reports to NCMEC, he said.

In 2015, the number of reports it received topped 4.4 million and in 2016, 8.2 million, Already in 2017, said Mr Shehan, the organisation had received more than two million reports.

Many net firms have started to hunt out abuse images that are being uploaded and shared

This work was aided by the use of classification systems that produce a unique identifier, known as a hash, for each piece of content. This can then be used to see if any image or video being uploaded is known to depict abuse.

"The hashes dramatically help abuse victims by reducing the amount of re-victimisation that occurs when the images are recirculated and traded online," he said.

Few European firms that rent servers or web space actively sought out images of abuse, he said, which could also help to explain the shift identified by the IWF.

Arda Gerkens, a Dutch MP who helps to oversee the nation's anti-abuse hotline, said it too had seen an "overall" rise in the number of reports to ISPs about material both in 2016 and 2015.

But, said Ms Gerkens, there had been no change in European policy over the last 12 months that would account for the shift.

A spokeswoman for the UK's National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC) said work had to be done to tackle the "escalating demand" for abuse material and to find out what stops offenders viewing child sexual abuse images.

"We must never forget that there is a victim behind every child sexual abuse image," she added. "Every time these horrific pictures are viewed a child is re-abused. Anyone who wilfully seeks out this material is complicit in fuelling this appalling industry."
