Fumbled the bag. Life doesn’t give you many options to sue the fuck outta someone and take em for all they’re worth
Why not release just his threats?
In that situation you’re still admitting the threats have power over you; by releasing the photos yourself, you both out the person as fucking scum and demonstrate that their threat was completely impotent, delivering a one-two punch to the ego.
I’m sure that your future employer will care a lot about the difference while running the most progressive and sex positive background check ever.
An employer who looks up that stuff and has a problem with it needs to get treatment for their mental illness. They are unwell.
Oh nooo some asshole put up a bunch of deepfakes of me, I can’t believe you found that, here let me email the site to warn them…
Exactly the same as if the guy released them so I guess it was never an effective threat to begin with?
It isn’t an effective threat to employers, but it does work on friends and family.
I don’t get it, either. It’s like being threatened to get shot and releasing the threat and shooting yourself.
That analogy only works if your nudes being out there hurts or at least bothers you. Maybe she doesn’t care or planned to do it herself someday?
You take away all the power if you follow through with releasing them yourself.
She had more balls than him
oh so you’ve seen the pics
I love how this gif loops
What a woman.
Reminds me of the Paris woman who testified to her abuser. Was in tabloids. Called that monster out.
The strength it takes is awe inspiring.
I really loved how she was recognised pretty unanimously as the badass that she is. Society has a lot of deeply rooted problematic beliefs around sexual assault, but Gisèle Pélicot’s bravery was a definite step towards unravelling those icky attitudes.
Gisèle Pélicot ?
Thank you.
The youths don’t even know how to guard against edging.
That’s like going full kamikaze, wrecking your opponent and somehow surviving the act.
So really only like half kamikaze
Effectively it was a failed kamikaze.
Kamikaze failed successfully!
they say if you’re just confident enough, they just let you do it …
This is someone who understands strategy. Quick! Promote them to a relevant position in their preferred industry!
and then everyone clapped
Nothing ever happens.
So… what did you say that link was?
I knew where the link was going without clicking it. I still clicked and enjoyed.
2008 called for you but they didn’t leave a msg.
hey now don’t stop these
I click on these because I like the song
There used to be a phone number you could call and it just played the song. I put it my email signature at work and forgot about it. When I got a promotion later on I found out when the guy I was supposed to be training called me cracking up saying he tried to call me from the number in my email. Oops Thankfully it wasn’t a big deal because I think I put it as Work # then Personal # and had it as the personal one
To be clear, both of these things are sex crimes, so don’t draw any major lessons from either side, aside from “don’t fuck with people.”
… publishing your own nudes is a sex crime?
Every morning I human traffic myself to work.
I mean… If it’s somewhere you don’t want to be…
Plus you’re usually getting fucked in some way.
And then micro-retire for the weekend?
Technically I’m micro retire as soon as I log into my computer and then spend half an hour getting a coffee.
Wouldn’t that be nano-retiring? I’m nano-retiring a couple of times a day when going to the toilet!
No but adding unsubstantiated comments about how your ex wanted to post revenge porn about you probably is.
Edit: you can stop the down voting, I didn’t pick up the part where she screenshotted his threats. Either way, be careful with that sort of vigilante justice as you might be right but still break the law.
If the quotes are screenshotted, it would be substantiated.
To an audience that isn’t interested in seeing them, yeah. They require consent, otherwise it’s a sex crime not dissimilar to flashing. I can’t remember the specific term. Non-consensual something or other.
Edit: I still can’t remember but the word “brandishing” keeps hopping to the forefront of my mind, and brandishing tits sounds hilarious
you can just put your titties behind a nsfw tag / spoiler?

Most disappointing spoiler tag ever.
Giant Tits

Much better!
Tagging people to let them know they exist is not forcing them on anyone.
I really don’t care to argue the point. Read up, if you care to argue it in court
While violation of social media ToS is possible, I find it difficult to believe that a court would regard the sex crime angle of publishing one’s own photos online seriously. Otherwise anyone linking to their OF without asking for permission to send the link first would be a sex criminal.
if only laws had logic
minors have been charged with creating pedo porn from their own photos
Yeah but she’s not a minor.
This comment section is very confusing.
yes I can see how life would be very confusing for some
It’s confusing cuz you lot are arguing about something that’s not happening.
“Oh what if she was a minor then it would be inappropriate” yeah it would be incredibly inappropriate if she was a minor, but since she isn’t, it isn’t.
Link or it didn’t happen
