What is "intimate image abuse"? 💬
Intimate image abuse refers to the non-consensual sharing of someone's intimate images or videos with the intent to cause distress. Sometimes this can be accompanied by someone's personal details e.g. an address, full name or workplace, etc.
3
31
53
We support a change in the law and welcome any steps that confirm the rights of an individual to have control over intimate images of themselves. Because it’s NEVER OK to take pictures of the private parts of someone’s body without their permission.

If you ask someone to send nudes and they say no, this isn't an invitation for you to badger them. No means no. Just because it's online doesn't mean you don't have to ask for consent. Sending unsolicited nudes is a crime. ⠀
