What is the mental impact of revenge porn on the victim

The sharing of private images or videos of another person, without their consent and with the purpose of causing embarrassment or distress is another form of online harassment, which is both a criminal offence and a civil wrongdoing. Causing embarrassment or distress is an understatement according to our clients that have experienced online harassment and require revenge porn removal.

It causes serious emotional, psychological and physical consequences for the people whose image(s) and/or videos have been posted. Revenge porn is a form of sexual violence that can be motivated by an intent to control, shame, humiliate, extort and terrorise victims.  Discovering shared images and videos of yourself online when you didn’t consent to them being shared is devastating. Even if you happily posed for an image or video that you consented to at the time, you did not consent to them being posted online and shared. Even if it is not your body, it is your image attached to the body and this doesn't change anything. It is real. It is all harassment and it can be debilitating. 

How helpful are the police with revenge porn

In your quest for revenge porn removal, you may have reported your shared images to a social media platform and have not had a response. Or you may have heard that the police are closing online harassment cases because they do not have the resources, its lengthy process, lack of technical expertise, geographical limitations and multi jurisdictions. This could lead to further violation in your life and you may feel that if you go to court, you will not be anonymous. This all further exacerbates your stress and anxiety about the shared images and videos online that you did not consent to.
