Child images - already a crime? Would that be correct? Are the people who sell nude images trying to get #1 made a sexual abuse crime?

If someone has your email and you don't have a string password and 2FA enabled, there is a possibility that you will at least be targeted for a hack and without a complex password, 2fa and log in alerts you might not even know. There is a long history of Onlyfans stuff been shared on 4chan and other sites, Reddit used to be a big hub for it too but the onlyfans stuff they now take down as DMCA violation. Rte are reporting that the Gardaí are investigating and hopefully if the purported cache of images exists? It will be investigatedd appropriately and action taken. There is a huge degree of convenience in the timing, and tbh the amount of talk around the existence of pictures, on the net, out there in the ether yet not actually being presented in any form other than as hearsay and 2nd hand just wakes the cynic in me.

No one seemed to have a problem with the private whatsapp chats where the lads in UCD were upto naughty stuff.

All of which would seriously ramp up the criminality of sharing the underage photos. Currently sharing the other photos onlyfans and the revenge porn that is claimed to have leaked as part of the "hack" aren't necessarily a criminal act. The proposed legislation will make it so. Legislation is certainly needed and it's long overdue. If FG had taken action when Howlin 1st proposed the bill, it'd be 2yrs on the books at this point.

This legislation was drafted by Brendan Howlin in 2017. Both McEntee and Howlin met about this a couple of weeks ago and it’s going to come before the committee next month anyway. The plan was always to have this done and dusted by the end of the year. Did you actually do any research on this or did you just see this to have a pop at a minister when there are files of hundreds of thousands of images involving thousands of women which have been passed around without their consent? I know many men here are just going to go down the route of ‘shur they shouldn’t be taking the photos anyway’ but of course they would think it’s fair game for lads to share them around as they wish without the woman’s consent.

Yet there is still no actual 1st hand reporting or evidence of this mass leak as yet? There 100% needs to be better legislation around revenge porn and other outing and sharing of private images. That needs to be separated from upset Huns complaining that their paid content was shared. Good legislation does not come from moral panic, much like white van kidnappers, satanic creches and those Romanian hair dying kiddie snatchers? Where is the actual meat to this story?

Your credit card information is stolen and published An artist has copies of work taken distributed without their consent. A software developer has a program that's pirated and distributed. Someone takes pictures of your child from Facebook and puts them onto some Shutterstock website. Either way, people have access to information they shouldn't have, and that should be illegal. Regardless of the content, regardless of how you feel about the content creators. The world is online. Good luck getting a job, or bills, or services, or shopping, or chatting with friends, or conducting business without an online presence. Everyone should have a right to online privacy,regardless of who you are or what content you produce.

There's an implicit understanding that the picture is for the use/view of the recipient only, and it becomes a breach of privacy to show that to anyone else. But you can see it's wishy-washy, hard to prosecute and the penalties are pretty small if the subject in the photos is an adult. This is why there are calls to make "revenge porn" a specific criminal act; that is the deliberate distribution of private explicit material beyond its originally intended audience.
