Without Consent: Shared on Telegram

The BBC's Disinformation Unit has discovered intimate pictures of women are being shared and viewed, without their consent, by tens of thousands of people on the social media app Telegram. The women believe their pictures were stolen, taken illicitly, or leaked as an act of 'revenge porn'. Sometimes they're shared for financial gain, but in some countries they're being used as a political tool to silence women. Telegram currently has 500 million active users - more than Twitter. In this film we hear from four women - from Cuba, Kenya, Azerbaijan and Malaysia - who have had their intimate pictures leaked, with devastating consequences.
