Twitter have now changed their rules so that people who use twitter are not able to post intimate videos or photos which are known as revenge porn. They have banned this from their social networking site. Some of the changed were written by the bbc.
- The social network's rules now state: "You may not post intimate photos or videos that were taken or distributed without the subject's consent."
- Last month posting revenge porn images became a criminal offence in England and Wales.
- Users who complain to Twitter about photos or videos posted will be asked to verify their identity and prove they did not give consent for it to be shared publicly.
- Anyone found to have posted material against the new rule would then be required to "delete the content in question before being able to return to the platform".
- The new law classes revenge porn as "photographs or films which show people engaged in sexual activity or depicted in a sexual way or with their genitals exposed, where what is shown would not usually be seen in public".
