*Classification Models for Preventing Juvenile Crimes Committed with Malware Apps DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.107188*

a child that uses unapproved apps to share and disseminate the picture(s) or blog(s) of another person, (either knowingly or unknowingly) in an offensive manner, or uses malware apps to steal the identity of another person with malware, or he/she uses malicious apps to sell contraband items or stalking innocent person(s) with malware can be alleged of juvenile crimes with malware apps.

Moreover, a child that uses malware apps to disrupt the business operations of a private person or corporate organization(s), or uses malware apps that behave in the manner that resembles malevolent computer programs (either local or indigenous computer program(s), foreign or proprietary program(s)), can equally be alleged of committing juvenile crimes with malware apps. Not only that, a child that uses malicious apps to harm (or intend to harm) another person(s), or uses any malware apps to spread computer viruses, Trojans, worms, etc. across computer or mobile networks may be alleged of juvenile crimes with malware apps. Fundamentally, a child that uses malware apps to unlawfully install (or he/she is caught while requesting for information to install) spyware in a computer or mobile phone of another person or organization's networks can be alleged of committing juvenile crime with malware apps. There are strong contestations pertaining to the legality of the fact that juveniles are socially categorized as adolescents, minors or teenagers in civilized societies. For this reason, contemporary studies argue that the ages of juveniles can technically qualify them to be accorded with the same treatment and honor that characterized the young people that their ages belong to the beginning of puberty and maturity age in the society. With these stacks of controversies, the statutory consent of the alleged minors or teenagers to be 'old enough' to discern (or must have known) malware apps and all actions that premeditate juvenile crimes in the process of using computer apps require rigorous legal interpretations.
