Sara O'Brien, CNN; University of Central Florida fraternity members accused of posting revenge porn on Facebook
"The use of a private Facebook page and
other online sites to spread nonconsensual pornography -- which is also
commonly referred to as "revenge porn" -- isn't a new phenomenon. Closed Facebook groups were at the center of a Penn State fraternity case, in which men were allegedly posting compromising pictures of women on a private Facebook page, as well as a nude photo scandal involving the Marines.
While Facebook has been working
to help combat the spread of revenge porn, it also is grappling with
hidden groups that share content that could violate its standards...
One in eight American social media users has been a target of nonconsensual pornography, according to a 2017 study conducted by the Cyber Civil Rights Initiative."
