#PSA: posting someone else's nudes without their consent is fucked up, and also illegal.

- it doesn't matter if you "don't own these images" —I already guessed you weren't a collective of teen girls or their agent.

- it doesn't matter if you "found them online" —they weren't your fucking photos to share.

- it doesn't matter if I can "message you to have a photo removed" —see point #2, asshole.

Not only are these porn reposting accounts *nonconsensually* using the bodies of (mostly) young women to earn themselves fake internet points, they're also (in many places) breaking existing anti-revenge-porn laws. It should also be pointed out that, because the photos are stolen, they have no reasonable assurance of the subject's age, so it's entirely possible they're also posting child porn—and ignorance of the subject's age isn't a defense.

So help make Fedi safer for femme-presenting folx and for responsible sex-work. Stop these shitty porn repost accounts that profit off of other people's bodies. Call them out. Report them. Get them suspended.

(but please don't dogpile or attack them—there's still a person in there somewhere, and with any luck they're redeemable)

#PornRequiresConsent

@alice nodds in agreement and for any stubborn instances: Just tell them to ask the account in question for their "#18USC2257 recordkeeper" to verify both age of performers and consent to the production and distribution.

  • Cuz even the most lenient hosters and admins will react quickly to avoid any liabilities as per #FOSTA & #SESTA!
