It has been remarkable to see the sudden sweep of moves against revenge porn in the last couple of months, with campaigns, social networks and now governments standing up to this crime.

Now the UK has a law against the sharing and usage of revenge porn, as reported by Sky News, which will now make it illegal to distribute such material. This link also features an interview with Hazel Higgleton, a high profile victim of revenge porn here in the UK.

It really is a case now of just how strongly and effectively all this legislation is used. It also needs to be flexible because the perpetrators of this crime will find ways around the laws. Time will tell.
