In this episode, I'll shed light on the growing intersection of domestic violence and cyber abuse. While domestic violence is often thought of as physical or emotional harm, digital abuse is an increasing tool used by perpetrators to assert control, seek revenge, and punish victims.
Today, I'll be talking about:
- The different types of domestic violence and their digital counterparts
- The dangers of deep fakes, doxing, revenge porn, sextortion, and image-based sexual abuse
- Shocking statistics: 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men experience domestic violence in the U.S.
- The devastating impact of digital abuse - including anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, financial loss, and career consequences
- How victims can take action, report these crimes, and seek help
If you or someone you know is experiencing digital abuse, help is available. Here are some resources:
- Cyber Civil Rights Initiative
- StopNCII – Helps prevent non-consensual intimate images from being shared
- Take It Down – A resource for removing explicit images online
