Revenge Porn” is new area of concern which developed out of cyberstalking. “Revenge porn,” is also known as “sexual cyberharrassment.” This is a new area of cyberstalking law, which has only been recognized in Florida since October of 2015. This law makes it a makes it a misdemeanor, punishable by up to a year in jail, to transmit nude pictures with identifying information about the subject of the images, without that person’s consent. Victims may also sue for civil damages under the law.

As Director of the Palm Beach County Anti-Stalking Collaborative, Attorney Stephanie Cagnet Myron created and conducted trainings on the issues of stalking and “revenge porn,” designed to educate college students and young professionals of the danger of sharing private photographs and images. There are devastating consequences when private sexual images are posted online without consent.
