ABSTRACT
Revenge porn can appear in various different online and offline locations and formats. Lichter's study of the revenge porn legislation found that victims had experienced 'embarrassment, reputation ruination' and some had also faced stalking, harassment and threats of being gang raped because their personal information was also out in the public domain. There are other media for the creation and distribution of revenge porn: some are close relations to bespoke sites, such as cheating sites; some in the process of rapid change and development; some not so new forms of media, for example, a man was found guilty of auctioning a CD with his ex-partner's naked images on eBay. The negative impact revenge porn has on its victims is significant and profound in terms of physical and psychological health and well-being, as is the case with many other forms of violence and abuse.
