WORLD WORLDWIDE United Kingdom US USA - care2PETITIONS - Unsolicited nudes are sexual harassment, but victims often have no justice
The UK took a stand this year, and the US should too.
A Man Was Just Convicted of Sending Unwanted Nudes, Which Are Harmful, Traumatizing, and Illegal in the UK. "Cyberflashing" Should Be a Crime in the US Too.
This year, the UK stood up for victims of "cyberflashing" (the act of sending unsolicited explicit photos) and made it a crime under the Online Safety Act. And at the time of this writing in March 2024, the first conviction has been handed down: a man who sent photos of his genitalia to a woman and a 15-year-old girl via WhatsApp is going to jail for 66 months.
In the US, there have been some attempts from individual states to combat "cyberflashing" but none have gone as far as the UK Online Safety Act. The US desperately needs a stronger federal law to protect victims of sexual harrasment like this.
