Then Averyn tells the true story of Amanda Todd. Amanda was just 12 years old when an anonymous online predator started extorting her for sexual content by threatening to share a screen grab he’d taken of her when she, after a ton of pressure, had flashed her breasts in a chat room.  Amanda refused and this piece of shit, internet goblin shared her topless photo with all of her friends and family on Facebook.  The relentless bullying that followed led Amanda to change schools three times before ultimately deciding suicide was her only option. Before Amanda died, she posted a YouTube video describing her horrific ordeal that immediately went viral after her death. Her story brought the issue of cyber bullying and sextortion to an international level.
