Make the duplication and distribution of nude photos, without consent illegal
Change the laws around the sharing of nude images of adults. Make it illegal for nude/ partially nudes to be shared without consent. Also look to bad online nude trading sites
This can affect the lives of young women and even young men. It can ruin jobs, relationships and can be linked to a string of mental health issues, even suicide. There’s a number of online sites that are specifically used for trading nudes and where there are certain individuals nudes being requested.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
It is already an offence to disclose a private sexual photograph or film without the consent of the individual who appears, if this is done with the intention of causing the individual distress: www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2015/2/section/33/enacted
We could accept a petition calling for this offence to be amended so that it applies whether or not the perpetrator intended to cause distress to the victim.
