Revenge porn

Revenge porn is the nonconsensual distribution of sexually explicit images or videos, often by a former partner seeking to humiliate or harm the person depicted.

Non-consensual intimate imagery: Sexually explicit or intimate images shared or created without the depicted person's consent. This broader term includes revenge porn and cases without a revenge motive.
Cyberstalking: Repeated unwanted monitoring, contact, or harassment carried out through digital technologies. Image distribution can be paired with ongoing digital harassment or threats.
Sexting: The consensual sending or receiving of sexually explicit messages or images through digital devices. Consensual creation or sharing does not imply consent to redistribute an image.
Nonconsensual pornography laws: Laws that prohibit or provide remedies for distributing intimate images without consent. These laws offer one route to accountability, though definitions and remedies vary by jurisdiction.
Image-based sexual abuse: Abuse involving the creation, distribution, or threatened distribution of intimate images without consent. It frames image distribution as part of a wider pattern of abuse.
Doxing: The public release of someone's private identifying information, usually without permission. Posting identifying details alongside intimate images can expose victims to further targeting.
Revenge: Retaliatory action intended to repay a perceived wrong or injury. Revenge is a possible motive, but nonconsensual image sharing can occur without it.
Right to be forgotten: A legal principle allowing people, under certain conditions, to seek removal of personal information from search results. It can support requests to suppress search results linking to intimate images.
Digital footprint: The data traces a person leaves through online activity and information about them. Copies and indexed posts can persist after an original upload is removed.
Sexual harassment: Unwanted conduct of a sexual nature that violates a person's dignity or creates an intimidating environment. Nonconsensual image sharing can form part of a broader pattern of sexual harassment.
