Revenge porn and teenager online harassment

Many of our first-time callers recently have been teenagers, trembling on the phone for some help because they have fallen victim to their private content being leaked on private websites without their consent. Pornography websites profiteer over a victim of online harassment and online exploitation’s misery, and something has to be done about it.

Victims of abuse need to know where to go and who to turn to, and the negative stigma surrounding this topic needs to become part of the real world and perhaps part of education at school. It is important to remember that revenge porn is a form of harassment. As such, harassment and revenge porn go hand to hand. 

Why seek revenge porn legal advice

Where revenge porn is concerned, often the victim does not find out about their videos or images being posted on the internet for some time. A typical teenager victim of revenge would often find out about their images or videos being posted online from close friends or in some cases, family members.

In many cases, the person who has posted the revenge porn images or videos in the first case will be an adult or someone who has committed revenge porn previously. If the video published is a result of sexual activities between the teenage victim and the poster of the videos, then the sexual activity may be considered as rape as no consent was given by the victim to a sexual activity that was intended to be published online.

Taking down revenge porn videos

We have seen a few cases where victims will call us up for help because their partner had asked them to participate in the filming of a pornographic film that has now found its way to the internet. For example, our client Joelle (not her real name) called us because her boyfriend had asked her to make a sex tape with him, where he had learned some new moves from a pornography website that he wanted to act out with her. A few months later after they had broken up, Joelle had been sent this video that she thought was private and it was being streamed live on pornography websites.

She told us that in these videos it appeared that she was consenting and enjoying the participation in the video, but the reality was that she was in pain, and she was being forced to act in a way she was told was normal. She wanted these videos taken down, and her courage to call us for help, and not be afraid to admit that it was her in these videos, stemmed from being aware that she could remain anonymous in this matter and the realisation that the behaviour was not normal.

Taking legal advice for revenge porn

Because we know that it could be difficult for a victim of revenge porn to make the first telephone call to a specialist lawyer and to open up about his or her experience, we make sure that the person they speak to at our end, is fully aware of the sensitivities that are involved in making such a phone call, and that everyone who works in our firm is trained to handle such important and often life changing conversations.

If you have been a victim of revenge porn, and you have been trying to handle the situation yourself, with limited success, you should give us a call now and we will make take away some of the pain that is involved in trying to have private images and videos removed from the internet.
