This isn't a case she should be making at all. This is a hacking issue, not any "hatred of women" or anything else she's trying to make it out to be. She's embarrassed and trying to deflect it onto something else. Hacking, yes. Hatred of women and rape issues, no. I'm also having problems with the video showing the very pictures she was so embarrassed about. There is some sort of disconnect there I don't have time to go into.

> This is a hacking issue, not any "hatred of women" or anything else she's trying to make it out to be. Exactly; if anything, it's love and attraction to women; male nudes are much less popular online.

  Did you watch the video? Do your parents know ur a slut. is a pretty nasty message to send to someone.

  Objectification and viewing private photos without consent ≠ Love and Attraction

    I disagree. I view JLaw's photos because I'm a heterosexual man, I wouldn't be interested in viewing a man's nude photos. I didn't look at Kim Kardasian's ass either, because I don't find her attractive.

Do you find watching images of women taken against her wish respectful? Pictures shown are not the one that were stolen. Those were the one she took later to reclaim feeling of control. Might not be the way I would cope, but certainly is not a disconnect with anything.

Surely, having her images spread without her consent and being called a whore upon requesting for them to be removed isn't hacking. The pictures in the video are also not the ones she was embarrassed about. She explains why she had them taken in the video.

There's no disconnect. Consent: no violation. No consent: violation.

Yes, this is precisely the case she should be making. Technology, protocols, and vulnerabilities are ethically agnostic, people aren't (short of psychopaths). There are always going to be exploitations of vulnerabilities, and there are always going to be vulnerabilities to be exploited. But sexual harassment is an ethical issue, that civil humans ought to vomit upon. It ought to be as criminal as trafficking. People doing it shouldn't get away with it, they ought to exposed as the psychopaths they are. Unfortunately in the case of revenge port, they aren't. And worse, by tackling this as an "hacking issue", you are keeping it that way.

This has very little to do with hacking. Sure there was a hack, but I get the impression she could have dealt with that if it would have ended there. The results would have been the same if it would have been the more stereotypical "revenge porn". What got to her were the thousands of men who continued to download, share and comment on the pictures.

  Anonymous people on the internet would call you a faggot cocksucker for much less than asking to have your picture removed from a site. There's no civil communicating with some people and trying to will just hurt you. The sites distributing her photos should be liable for damages under the DMCA though.

    Thanks for illustrating the fundamental problem. If you've been on the internet for any length of times, you've been called bad names and have moved on. Why can't women do the same? It's a difference of scale. If somebody calls you a "slut" once, it's easy to assume that it's the person doing the name-calling is the one with the problem. But what if every second e-mail you receive implies you are a slut?

A burglary case is not about property theft but about weak locks and the need for better windows?
