The 24-year-old Siti (name changed) was dating a boy for the last five years, he never told his parents or friends about it. Not even when she became a victim of revenge porn.
Their relationship became very bad and when they tried to end this relationship last year, the boy posted pornographic pictures of them on social media. To share indecent pictures or videos of someone without their permission is called revenge porn.
In many countries, it is a crime and its victims can lodge a complaint. But in Indonesia, victims of revenge porn like Siti do not go to complain because there is no difference between the offender and the victim under the pornographic law and electronic transaction law. .
In 2019, a woman whose private sex tape was shared without permission was sentenced to three years in prison. He appealed against this decision but was dismissed. Victims of revenge porn feel that they do not get enough help.
Siti says, “I feel trapped due to this shock. Many times I feel that I should not live anymore. I try to cry but tears do not come out.”
