Reflection on articles from real life situations of hacking

There was a young girl from Sweden who visited a website which showed movies online. This website had tons of commercials and ads telling the girl to click here and there to win a price. The girl then accidentally pressed the links and the ads. Nothing seemed to happen so she went out of the ads and started watching the movie that she had been wanting to watch. It was only until after the movie that she realized that someone had hacked in t her computer and taken several pictures of her through her camera.  She than saw that these pictures of her were posted online for everyone to see.
The girl then contacted the police after speaking to her parents about what happened. The police luckily managed to delete the pictures from the net and the girl then learned her lesson. Not to click on ads or  advertisements.
