Persons who initiate sexual assaults against children and young people on the Internet are mostly male. Until a few years ago, the perpetrators were mainly adults. Thomas-Gabriel Rüdiger is a cybercriminologist and observes the trend that more and more suspects are children and young people themselves. He explains in the klicksafe Expert*innen-Talk how this is to be assessed and how it should be dealt with.
