The clear material platform in Italy was forced to shut down on Thursday, after which it was discovered that users displayed photos of high-profile women without their consent.
The contents of the site included images of Prime Minister Georgia Meloni and European Parliament members Alesndra Moreti, opposition leader Elli Shlen and affected Chiera Faragani.
Online Forum, Dubh Fika, received her name from Italian Slang for female genitalia, and remained around for at least two decades.
Some 200,000 users repeatedly watched the site and displayed pictures identified by names or some subjects.
Women’s images were removed from TV or social media profiles.
Porn and clear positions were tagged for content, including ideal violence against women.
Sexism with ‘impurities’
The backlash grew on the activities of the site when the Moreti formally filed a complaint with the policy after finding his photo on the site displayed without its permission.
Moreti said, “They have a wive show and clip stolen TV shows that I have appeared for years, then changing them and feeding them to thousands of users.”
The European Union MP said that the site was one of the many people in Italy who operated “with impure”, despite many complaints filed against him.
“This type of site, which provoke rape and violence, should be closed and banned,” he said.
The administrators of the platform on Thursday made a statement saying that due to the site “toxic behavior”, “with great regrets” and “wrong use of the platform”, which damaged its original spirit. ,
Italy’s struggle with gender-based violence
All this comes after a similar case containing the Italian Facebook group “Mia Mowgli” (“my wife”), so there is a coincidence across the country.
In the online group of more than 30,000 men, users uploaded pictures of their partners with their consent and shared theme, where images attracted pornographic comments.
The Italian government approved a draft law in March that for the first time introduced the legal definition of FEMIing in the country’s criminal law and punished it with life imprisonment, but the bill has fulfilled the final approval nor has the law.
The central-class opposition of the countries has praised the law, but emphasized that the economic, educational and cultural sources of genderism and misunderstanding in Italy are still uncontrolled.
