Until there's a law on revenge porn, keep your kit on
 

The German court that ruled that intimate pictures should be deleted if a partner wishes has opened an important debate


Full story http://www.theguardian.com/commentis...man-court-case

"A court in Koblenz, Germany, has ruled that intimate, compromising photographs should be deleted at the end of a relationship if one partner wants it. In this case, the woman wanted the man to delete erotic photographs she'd consented to pose for. When he refused, she sought legal help.

Even though the man had shown no intention of reproducing the images or putting them online, this has been viewed as a sign that partners should feel empowered not only to demand deletion of images, but, should the Koblenz case set a precedent, to be able to do so immediately after the relationship ends, instead of having to wait for something bad to happen.

There's much discussion at the moment about "the right not to remember", and the blurring of lines between privacy and censorship online. However, there could be no grey areas where revenge porn is concerned. This is where private photos and footage ends up being shown around, sent to victims' friends and colleagues, placed on porn sites or leaked elsewhere online. Victims can end up stalked, sexually assaulted, being forced to leave jobs or change where they are studying, and more.

It's a devastating, very modern, betrayal ? where just one mistake (trusting a person you're intimate with) destroys your life. Embarrassing, degrading, and frightening, it could be viewed as a form of stalking once removed.

Revenge porn also seems representative of a kind of carnal electronic tagging of the sexually active female ? a way of punishing, denigrating and branding former partners, namely, the ones who got away. The point being that ultimately they didn't manage to get away ? victims of revenge porn are bound to their tormentors, perhaps for ever, within those incriminating denigrating pixels.

With this in mind, you can see why some people campaign to have it classified as a sexual crime. Certainly revenge porn has victim-blaming in common with sexual assault."

revenge porn is something else...

If the ex partner has no model release form i would suspect that he/she could seek legal help to have the photos taken down from any public forum.

True. But then again when has the media, or law enforcement for that matter, ever been accused of doing due dilligence in nailing down these little details when a good 'evils of porn' story is in the offing?

I demand my ex's blow job skills she gained with me taken away from her so nobody else would enjoy it right away.

that's nice

what happens if there was no relationship, and they just send the pictures anyway?

what is the deal with courts these days?

I have a family member going through a revenge-porn nightmare right now. Squash one mole, three more pop up. The only solution seems to be to go after the person sharing the content directly.

It's beyond stupid to do anything with the photos, but people are that stupid.
I don't care if stupid people go to jail.

If I knew a guy who did that to his ex then I don't think I'd trust that guy much.

Technically, you're saying that you teached your wife how to suck dick :helpme.

Definitely says a lot about one's character if they would share intimate photos of an ex with the internet. To show a buddy is one thing but as they say the internet is forever. :1orglaugh

you should check out www.adultmillionaire.com that you have about 1 million revenge porn sites

Ex-wife. And that means I want her to unlearn it.

That is not what he meant.

This whole thing is very difficult

i believe him..
