Stop Online Photo Abuse/ - Amber Heard's Speech with Congresswoman Jackie Speier (D-CA). SHIELD is federal legislation that targets perpetrators who knowingly share sexually explicit or nude images of someone without OBTAINING ANY consent.
Amber Heard is a victim of hacks in 2014 which released her photos for harassment and manipulation.
The SHIELD (stopping Harmful Image Exploitation and Limiting Distribution) Act will hold accountable and deter violators of intimate privacy...
“For victims of nonconsensual pornography, today makes it possible to destroy a person’s life with the click of a button or a tap on a cell phone. The damage caused by these attacks can crush careers, tear apart families, and, in the worst cases, has led to suicide,” Rep. Speier said.
“What makes these acts even more despicable is that many predators have gleefully acknowledged that the vast majority of their victims have no way of fighting back...”
“SAG-AFTRA represents 160,000 actors, singers, dancers, broadcasters and recording artists who are at high risk of being victimized by image-based sexual abuse,” said David White, the National Executive Director of the Screen Actors Guild – American Federation of Television and Radio Artists."
In Worldie's view, sometimes people don't have to time to say no or to not give consent when it's online harassment done with croudsourced hate. Just like in-person, you should not be able to harass, threaten, or incite violence online.
It's not speech - it's hostile work environment.
It's time to remove the Online "Wild West" - victims often don't fit high social credit ratings, do they?
