EDITORIAL: Cybercriminals a step ahead of law
On Friday last week, Democratic Progressive Party Legislator Mark Ho (何志偉) criticized the justice system for a lack of progress in investigating several paid-membership pornography Web sites that provide videos of people secretly filmed in a variety of compromising situations, including nude photographs, women using the bathroom and sex acts.
People have been filmed in private and public places, including restrooms at train stations, gyms, schools and office buildings.
Some were allegedly tricked into sending videos to the Web sites run by Yu Chi-hao (余啟豪), while others might have been victims of extortion. Many are underage.

The justice system has been slow in investigating pornography Web sites that allegedly contain videos of people filmed without their consent, Democratic Progressive Party Legislator Mark Ho (何志偉) said yesterday.
Paid membership pornography Web sites operated by Yu Chi-hao (余啟豪) contain videos of people secretly filmed in sex acts, a man using the alias “W” told a news conference Ho held at the Legislative Yuan in Taipei.
Prosecutors last month indicted Yu for contravening the Child and Youth Sexual Exploitation Prevention Act (兒童級少年性剝削防治條例) among other offenses.
