"Ive often seen profiles where you just know the person doesnt know the picture is been taken Wasn't sure if it was illegal...good to know " Yes signed in the 28th of December. The law came from one mother's grief over her daughters suicide. Its not OK to share someone's image without consent. | |||

"All my pics are just of me . But it's good that this has come in and hopefully it might make people think twice about sharing pics of others without their knowledge not just on here but all over social media. I have a friend whose pics have been used without her consent and it was quite upsetting for her even worse they were not removed either when reported. " This is exactly why it's been brought in. To have your image shared without consent could do alot of damage to someone, it already has. Its not just for here its social media, whats app groups, groups on the Internet. | |||

"What is different about coco's law is that someone may consent to have their picture taken but they don't consent to have that image shared online. This is important to disguish. Just because someone poses for a photo in the bedroom it does not give the photographer the right to distribute it.... Its to prohibit what is refereed to as "revenge porn" which causes serious personal infringement. It extends to cyber bullying, photoshopped images... The results of which too often end in tragedy like that young girl " This is it exactly. So if as a woman I agree to have an intimate picture taken with a man this does not give him consent to share that image on any platform. This is my point on this thread. So many single male profiles have images of unknown woman. Has consent been sought?? If not its an offence that could lead to prosecution. Single profiles both male and female need to be aware of this. | |||

"I have been in quite a few kik groups, left one or two over pics been shared which I felt was completely inappropriate and I said it at the time. I don't think I've been in a group where people were encouraged to send abusive messages. But I have asked for advise and help when I've been abused or threatened on here. But than I've also heard of groups sharing face pics and I know that was one of the reasons face pic Friday stopped. | |||

"Well tbh I wouldn't be a member of a group like that. I don't share images and I don't want any shared with me. As far as concerning themselves with the law, if a law is broken and someone decides to press charges their concern is of no concern. Kik isn't anonymous we all have IP addresses.

" Tbh I think the first step is too actually call the person or person out in the group for sharing it. People need to be held accountable for their actions. " Whether I spoke up in a group would be circumstantial. If I thought it would be a teachable moment & the person would realise the potential impact of their actions & stop, then I'd say something. If I thought they would be an asshole about it & potentially start destroying evidence if they felt threatened, I'd not be public about it. | |||

"Best protection practice is to be very prudent with picture sharing and with pictures being taken during meets, discuss there and then usage. You can't exclude the risk altogether but you can reduce the exposure. I've only one pic up that includes someone else, we both have it on our profile because it's simply fab. " | |||

"On a technical note... does the image need to be explicit. For example I a kik group if someone shared a face pic is that an issue.. legally not morally " My understanding is that the law relates to 'intimate' images only. | |||

Thanks for this, worth researching " Foreign jurisdiction only comes into play if you need Kik to supply information or participate in proceedings... like if they were asked to produce records or give over personal information. And even then most countries have laws stating that information can be handed over if it is required for legal purposes. If you have evidence of the sharing independently, the location of registration of the means of sharing shouldn't matter. | |||
