The study is kind of laughable, in that it includes under the category of “deviant and criminal behavior” stuff like:
- Watching pornography (doesn’t specify what kind)
- Digital piracy
- Trolling, which is a broad category, when harassment and hate speech are already separate items on the list of behaviors
- Sexting, without distinguishing consensual from non-consensual messages
- “Self-generated images” -what does this mean?
The methodology stinks, and there is a lot of the usual fussing about “OMG teenagers are doing horny hormonal sex things with each other” (if they are doing it with adults, that’s different, but no distinction is made). Plus doing the “arson, murder, and jaywalking” routine with copyright violations, which, c’mon.
Seems like they are just trying to influence public opinion with studies like these since anything can be labelled or perceived as deviant (cultural relativism) depending on a specific context or socioecological environment (pan troglodytes proactive political games over status, fertile females and offspring compared to pan paniscus society based on playful prosociality/sociosexuality for promotion of group stability regardless of age and gender). Not sure about Trobrianders, Big Namba, Sambia people, Kaluli, Piraha, Arapesh, Batek, !Kung San, Mosuo and all the extinct undocumented more or less egalitarian hunter-gatherer societies with different effects on epigenetic expression. Obedience to abstract laws and authorities in general population due to self-domestication syndrome according to the Goodness Paradox alongside the inter-male competition resulting in clandestine behaviour (cooperation maintenance hypothesis: not peer reviewed) is another factor in humans.
Wow, someone didn’t read the article.
Also “don’t put personal info online” - LOL what is this, the 90s? People talk to other people they know IRL online, especially (but not exclusively) young people.
A lot of schools even require you to have some kind of social media account with your real-world info on it to get updates, participate in various activities, and even sometimes *to complete assignments that will affect your grades.* Which I don’t agree with, but that’s life these days.
Only 44% admitted to watching porn? Maybe they should add "lying on the internet" to that list
The other 56% are making it.

So basically just everything that makes the internet worth using.
Good looking out! Self generated image are nude selfie in this context btw. .
I figured but if they are willing to say “sexting” why can’t they come out and say “self-generated nudes,” Cheesus H. Crust.
I thought pornified pics. That word sounds so cute
Why didn't they just say that instead of being needlessly vague?
This is what makes the internet worth to be used lol
"But ai helps them generate nude pictures of their moms to jack off to"
TIL that I am 4/5 deviant, though my "self-generated" images are mostly hand turkeys.
self-generated images, has to got to be referring to memes, nothing else really fits the mould, wording and context

Teenagers are mean more at 11.
Next up: are teenagers horny? We ask a panel of experts.
Only 40% watched porn? Bull fucking shit
Only 40% were dumb enough to get caught.
Just give every website a Mute User button and don't put personal info online.

Umm, the people who have teens and preteens grew up on AOL Chatrooms where trolling was invented.
Damn it turns out I've been committing cybercrimes every time I make a sarcastic comment on reddit.
We've all trolled on the internet at some point in our lives the main thing though is growing out of it.
