    At 13, he used his web cam to perform sexual acts for pedophiles.
    He outsmarted the child protection software his mother installed in his computer.

    Perverts would also send him cash.
    His mother noticed the expensive computer equipment in his room yet never did an in-depth investigation why.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He was a lonely 13-year old who originally set out to use his web cam and chatrooms to socialize with other kids.

    A predator, who lured him to fly to Las Vegas, molested him.
    A New York Times reporter developed a trusting relationship with him and encouraged him to come out with his story.
    In his testimony at the Capital, he was poised and well spoken.
    He told his story on Oprah despite threats to his life.
    His willingness to go public about his experience helped the public put a face on the victims of Internet predators.
