The targeted women included heads of state, first ladies, royalty, legislators, government officials, journalists, TV presenters, athletes, entertainers, and other public figures.

Investigators said users could browse material by tags including "rape," "forced," "degradation," and "slave." Those categories are a big reason why prosecutors framed the case as abuse and exploitation rather than a copyright or impersonation dispute.

I didn't say they should be free to do it. I said the only part of that situation you can control is your own reaction. If people don't believe you when you say they're fake then those people are assholes just like the people who made the fakes. That doesn't mean you should spend your time being upset by it all. That's the goal of the people who did it.

This isn't situationally different than people spreading rumors about you. Those you care about should believe you when you say it isn't true. If they don't then you have a problem that's not related to the situation you find yourself in.
