I agree, I don't see any reason to act for any of us ATM. It was just a
way to express that there may be other side effects as well if you tell
a group of people something like this. Things may e.g. change when in a
couple of years time someone meets him in person.
Shall we just forget this incident and then in a couple of weeks time
when p.o-t expires we can just pretend this never happened?

I think the most you can do legally is inform the domain owner or ISP
that one of the machines in their network is acting malicious.
Anybody else know something better?

This being POV news, a well executed picture might make us forget easier.

Agreed. Let the network owner deal with the problem child internally -
generally the best route to go. If they don't, then report them to the
proper authorities.

At least in the US, even when the age of consent is under 18 there is
still that pesky little "statutory rape," which states that you have to
be within a certain age range until older.
For instance, even if two 16 year olds can have sex without it being
statutory, that doesn't mean a 16 year old and a 45 year old can.

Are those age limits defined somewhere in the US law?
(Also, the way you worded the above paragraph makes it sound like two
15 year olds having sex would be committing statutory rape. Which one
exactly? Or maybe both? ;) )

Not in federal law, but state by state, I'm sure it is.

Any idea what those laws are in the state of Georgia?

I bet that most people who assume that this case must be illegal don't
know either. They just assume.

Ignorance is no excuse for breaking the law, though, and it's far, far
better to err on the side of caution with something like this, lest you
end up in jail for statutory rape with a bunch of people who REALLY don't
like rapists. From what I hear, people convicted of that - especially
when minors are involved - tend not to do very well in the general prison
population.
