Image based abuse

“‘Revenge porn’ or image-based abuse is when someone shares, or threatens to share, an intimate photo or video of you without your consent. It’s still image-based abuse if it’s a screenshot or recording of a live chat (sometimes known as capping), or a meme, or even a fake or deep fake that has been edited to look like you. Image-based abuse is never OK, and if it’s happened to you it’s not your fault.” – eSafety Excerpt 2024 

You can report image-based abuse and get help.
