Salvaging the situation: Four things to do when your sex video is trending

According to lawyer Odhiambo, there are four quick remedies when your nude pictures or videos are posted online:

1. Demand immediate removal: The group administrator or the website manager can do that, but if they refuse, engage a lawyer.

2. Get an injunction: If an ex posts revenge porn, an injunction can be speedily sought from the courts barring future distribution. Refusal is tantamount to contempt of court.

3. Civil remedies: You can bring the claim against the person who uploads the images or videos, and with sufficient evidence, get paid damages through the courts, like former Miss Kenya, Roshanara Ibrahim.

4.  Criminal remedies: Revenge porn can be a criminal offence and may fall under several categories like blackmail or harassment which are criminal offences that can lead to a jail term.
