Someone shared my nudes

Whose fault is it that my nudes got shared?

“Completely the person who shares it on. I think we are very quick to victim blame.” Female 18 Pākehā

This situation totally sucks. The first thing to know is that you’re not to blame. Having your nude or partially nude image shared without your consent is not your fault – the responsibility is 100% on the person who passed them on.

Sharing naked or nearly naked content of someone without their permission is called image based abuse. If this happens to you, here are some things you can do:

  1. Screenshot the content, if possible, and make a record of where the content is (capture any URLs if you can).
  2. Report the content to the platform (e.g. Facebook, Snapchat, PornHub) it’s on and request the content be removed.
  3. Report the profile or account of the person who shared your content to the platform it is shared on.
  4. Contact Netsafe to find out what options are available to you.

Netsafe can explain all the options available, try to get the nudes removed and talk to you about the law. Their helpline is free and confidential. If someone’s threatening to share your nudes or blackmailing you, they can also help you.
