Badabing Facebook App Draws Criticism

There is concern is growing over a new iPhone app called 'Badabing'.Badabing is a phone app which scours pictures posted by users' Facebook friends to pull out all the photos showing them wearing revealing outfits.

On sale on the iTunes store for $1.99, the Badabing! app uses some sort of image-recognition technology to work out which of your friends pictures show the most skin.

Once the pictures have been discovered, users can then browse them all before bookmarking their favorites and sharing them with others. The service is particular disturbing in light of recent claims by the Internet Watch Foundation that it had found more than 12,000 instances of girls who had posted seductive pictures of themselves that had ended up on pornographic sites. Do you think this is something that needs to be stopped?
