#2Education is key here - we the tech-savvy, need to make more of an effort to educate those less so, on how to remove files from their devices that could prove compromising in the future.
Naturally, I understand that what I've just said isn't the whole answer, but I really do think it's a good place to start.

I think the key here would be to change to laws so that victims of non-consensual release of pictures are not charged.

Getting laws changed is hard, educating others is easier, and if we all made the effort, the law change wouldn't be necessary.

#5Sorry, what am I missing?
1. its illegal to produce pornographic material in Uganda*
2. she produced pornographic material (of herself)
3. it came to light (its always a risk)
4. she has been charged.
If you play silly games…
* I don't think it should be, but that's their law.

Both of these are true of course. People need to be aware of the dangers online, and learn how to protect themselves from scammers and other predators. But punishing the victim is utterly ridiculous.

#7> " In Rwanda, nude photos of 2017 presidential candidate, Diane Rwigara, surfaced on the internet. She said the images had been doctored and were intended to discredit her."
This is the crazy part. Why bother "hacking" when deep-faking is such an easy option? At the same time, this allows for plausible deniability even if the photos are real.

#8How about stop putting nude and intimate photos on your phone? Just don’t take them, period. It doesn’t matter if you are a celebrity or not, if the photos exist then someday/somehow they are going to get out and once they do you will never be able to pull them back. You might not even have a chance to try if you end up in jail. Even if you live in a country that doesn’t care, one day you might accidentally transport them to or through a country that does, or attitudes might change over time. Put a mirror by the bed if you want to see yourself. Don’t set yourself up for trouble.

Victim blaming.

So you believe it's irrelevant and should not be discussed?
