#ISayNo to Revenge Porn - AllRise
Revenge porn (‘sexpreading’) involves the distribution of sexually explicit images or videos, without consent of the individuals shown.
Revenge porn is often used to blackmail another person (mostly girls and women) into performing sex acts or to continue a relationship (sextortion) -or just as a mean to harm the person’s reputation.
Measures have been taken against revenge porn. Social media sites like Facebook have started to take actions to detect and stop the spread of revenge porn.
Legislation has also been proposed to criminalize the posting of non-consensual nude pictures. Sites dedicated to the posting of revenge porn have been shut down and there is a growing awareness and movement to stop the spread of revenge porn.
