In a survey published in 2021, approximately 37 percent of young people said they had seen pictures or videos with sexual content of themselves or friends being spread online and on social media.
In Italy, sharing private sexual images or videos of a person without their consent is a crime. In a recent survey, a large share of respondents - and especially female interviewees - considered Italy's draft law against the Revenge Porn to be a social achievement.
