OSVETNIČKA PORNOGRAFIJA U PRAVU I STVARNOSTI – POJMOVNA RAZGRANIČENJA I REGULATIVA
REVENGE PORNOGRAPHY AT LAW AND REALITY – TERMS DEFINITIONS AND LEGISLATION

Summary/Abstract: Essentially, revenge pornography is the act of abusing and distributing intimate images or recordings, without the consent of the person on those materials. By use of technology, this kind of abuse can reach large proportions and the contents gets to the general public. Revenge pornography is a type of online pornography that, although created with the consent of another person, is distributed further without their consent (Salter & Crofts, 2015). Unequivocally, revenge pornography, as a modern phenomenon, represents a serious challenge and victimization, because thanks to the abuse of technique and technology, it becomes available to an even wider public. Victims of revenge pornography experience post-traumatic stress, similar to that experienced by victims of sexual harassment and bullying (Gruber & Fineran, 2007). In this paper, apart from conceptual definitions and delimitation of terms, we will show how revenge pornography is depicted and sanctioned in different legislations and try to make a proposal on how this act can be included in our Criminal Code.
