He must have meant MMS, where you can send photos, which functions almost exactly like SMS.

Agreed on this being a terrible article, but it does highlight one thing; punishing teens for this is not the way to go. I think diluting the sex criminal database with a quarter of the upcoming generation is a little counter productive.

I removed it, i try to be less judgmental.

I am not in the US, but I would probably have done "sexting" instead while being at that age. Looking at these percentages, it seems like the laws don't display the reality. At least they should make exceptions when the other part is at a similar age.

Agreed. An interesting article on the subject that was posted a few months ago. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4495914
