Facebook Being Blamed in East Coast Porn Fiasco

​Some teens on the East Coast were horrified to discover their innocent Facebook photos had been plastered all over a sleazy porn site.

According to media reports, 17 girls from Bay Path Technical Vocational Regional High School in Charlton, Mass., were victims of this Facebook/porn fiasco, but school officials -- after looking at the site themselves -- discovered that they weren't alone. There are photos of other young girls from various states. (No word on whether California is one of them.) 

According to New England Cable News:

"There was also personal information posted with the pictures, their names and where they went to school. While the Bay Path students were clothed in their pictures, the site also had pictures of nude children on it. The school contacted police, and police contacted the FBI."

Police say the lax privacy settings on Facebook is to blame -- not the girls.

Here's the full report:



Now would be a really good time to go make sure your kids change their Facebook setting to private.
