CIVIL LIABILITY OF PROVIDERS FOR THE EXPOSURE OF NON-CONSENSUAL INTIMATE CONTENT: DAMAGE TO WOMEN´S DIGNITY

Abstract

This study analyzes the civil liability of internet providers in managing non-consensual intimate content, focusing on the violation of women's privacy and dignity in the digital environment. The research adopts a qualitative approach, based on a bibliographic review and the analysis of legislation, reviews, and policies imposed by digital platforms. The results indicate that the absence of effective guidelines for removing unauthorized content contributes to the perpetuation of gender-based violence, exposing gaps in current regulations and the actions of providers. It is observed that, although there are regulations to curb these practices, their enforcement remains flawed, making it difficult to protect victims and fostering impunity. It is concluded, therefore, that it is essential to improve regulations and platform actions to ensure greater security for women, promoting a consistent, ethical, and effective approach to combating the non-consensual exposure of intimate content.
