Benjamin Wittes, a senior fellow in Governance Studies and co-founder and editor-in-chief of The LawFare Blog, is co-author of a new study,-"Sextortion: Cyber Security, Teenagers, & Remote Sexual Assault"; and a legislative proposal to close the sextortion sentencing gap. In the podcast, Wittes explains the crime itself; the importance of cyber security and how teens and parents can protect themselves online. "Teenager cyber security hygiene actually matters a great deal," Wittes says. "It just matters a great deal to protect values and goods that the cyber security community has not traditionally focused on."
