Best Practices

- User education: Informing users about the importance of consent and the consequences of sharing private material.
- Collaboration with authorities: Working with law enforcement to combat privacy violations and support victims.
By adopting these practices, media and platforms can contribute to a safer and more respectful digital environment.
