Villainy Against Amanda Todd edit
On September 7, 2012, a Canandian teen named Amanda Todd posted a 9-minute YouTube video titled My story: Struggling, bullying, suicide, self-harm, which showed her using a series of flashcards to tell of her experiences being bullied. The video can be viewed here. She eventually commited suicide after, on October 10. The video went viral the next day, receiving over 1.6 million views by October 13, with news websites from around the world linking to it.
In the video, Todd said when she was in 7th Grade, she and her friends would video chat to talk to people and she had gotten compliments for her appearance. After repeatedly being asked for over a year to bare her breasts on camera, Todd did so on a webcam stream. Sometime later, a stranger (presumably Coban) appeared to her, having saved a frame via screen capturing, threatening to send the topless photo to her friends, teachers, and relatives, unless she met his demands. Todd, however, didn't think about what he said too much.
Todd later stated that during her Christmas 2010 break, police came to her home around 4 AM, informing her that the photo was circulating on the Internet. She wrote that she experienced anxiety, depression, and panic disorder due to having been sexually exploited online and cyberbullied. Her family moved to a new home, where Todd later said she began using alcohol and other drugs.
Sometime later, Todd's blackmailer reappeared, creating a Facebook profile that used the topless photo as its profile image and contacting people at her new school. Todd was bullied for it, eventually changing schools for a second time.
She changed schools numerous times, actually, with the same results. According to her mother, Carol, "Every time she moved schools he would go undercover and become a Facebook friend. What the guy did was he went online to the kids who went to [the new school] and said that he was going to be a new student — that he was starting school the following week and that he wanted some friends and could they friend him on Facebook.
