We show off our baby photos,

那表示在座當中有少數幾個人
就有可能會成為受害者。

03:10
You want to know
what's even more alarming?

There's only one federal bill pending;

只有一項聯邦法案，目前還待決；
03:20
it's called the ENOUGH Act,
by Senator Kamala Harris.

58
188760
3117
是參議員卡瑪拉哈里斯提出的
「ENOUGH（夠了）」法案，
「ENOUGH（夠了）」法案，
03:24
It would criminalize revenge porn.
59
192712
2705
它會將復仇式色情歸為犯罪行為。
03:27
But that could take years to pass.
60
195441
2175
但可能要花上數年才能通過法案。
03:29
So what are we left with in the meantime?
61
197640
2030
所以，在這期間，我們還有什麼？
03:31
Flimsy civil misdemeanors.
62
199694
1930
很不周密的民事輕罪。
03:33
Currently, only 40 states and DC
have some laws in place for revenge porn.

63
201648

目前，只有四十個州及華盛頓特區

03:40
And those penalties vary --
we're talking $500 fines.

罰款各有不同——
我們在談的是 500 美元的罰款。

03:44
Five hundred dollars?
65
212061

500 美元？你在跟我開玩笑嗎？
03:45
Are you kidding me?
66

03:46
Women are losing their jobs.
67
214465
1356
女性丟掉了工作。
03:47
They're suffering
from damaged relationships

她們的關係受到損害，
名譽受到損害。

03:51
They're falling into illness

她們因此生病和陷入憂鬱。
03:54
And the suicide rates are climbing.

2488
自殺比率在攀升。
03:57
You're looking at a woman
who spent 11 months in court,

你們現在看著的這個女人，
花了十一個月在法庭上，
花了十一個月在法庭上，
04:02
thirteen trips to the courthouse
73
230016
2127
跑了法庭大樓十三趟，
04:04
and thousands of dollars in legal fees,
74
232167
2466
花費數千美元的訴訟費，
04:06
just to get two things:
75
234657
1634
只得到兩樣東西：
04:08
a protection from cyberstalking
and cyberabuse,
and cyberabuse,
76
236315
2897
網路跟蹤和網路虐待的保護令，
04:11
otherwise known as a PFA,
77
239236
2476
也就是一般所知的 PFA，
04:13
and language from a judge
78
241736
1242
以及法官要求第三方網路公司
04:15
that would force a third-party
internet company
internet company
79
243002
2258
將內容移除。
04:17
to remove the content.
80
245284
1598
04:19
It's expensive, complicated and confusing.
81
247815
3185
這實在是既昂貴又複雜，
還很讓人困惑。
還很讓人困惑。
04:23
And worse, legal loopholes
and jurisdictional issues drag this out
and jurisdictional issues drag this out
82
251024
5446
更糟的是，法律漏洞和轄區議題
又讓這件事拖延了幾個月，
04:28
for months,
83
256494
1284
04:29
while my private parts
were on display for months.
were on display for months.
84
257802
3839
在這幾個月間我的私密處
就繼續被展示著。
就繼續被展示著。
04:34
How would you feel if your naked body
was exposed for the world to see,
was exposed for the world to see,
85
262203
4032
如果你的裸體被公開給全世界看，
你會有什麼感受？
你會有什麼感受？
04:38
and you waited helplessly
for the content to be removed?
for the content to be removed?
86
266259
3306
且你只能無助地
等待著內容被移除？
等待著內容被移除？
04:42
Eventually, I stumbled upon
a private company
a private company
87
270966
2667
最終，我偶然碰見了
一間私人公司，
一間私人公司，
04:45
to issue a DMCA notice
to shut the website down.
to shut the website down.
88
273657
3128
發佈了 DMCA 通知，
將該網站關閉。
將該網站關閉。
04:49
DMCA -- Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
89
277434
3383
DMCA —— 數位千禧年著作權法。
04:53
It's a law that regulates
digital material and content.
digital material and content.
90
281154
3115
這項法律是用來規範
數位素材和內容用的。
數位素材和內容用的。
04:56
Broadly, the aim of the DMCA is to protect
both copyright owners and consumers.
both copyright owners and consumers.
91
284582
5048
廣義來說，DMCA 的目標是要保護
版權的所有人以及消費者。
05:01
So get this:
92
289654
1162
所以，要了解：
拍攝和分享裸照的人，
拍攝和分享裸照的人，
05:02
people who take and share nude photos
own the rights to those selfies,
own the rights to those selfies,
93
290840
5036
擁有那些自拍照的權利，
05:07
so they should be able to issue a DMCA
to have the content removed.
to have the content removed.
94
295900
4952
所以他們應該能夠透過
DMCA 來將內容移除。
DMCA 來將內容移除。
但沒有這麼快——因為
05:12
But not so fast --
95
300876
1337
05:14
because the other fight we're dealing with
96
302237
2412
我們在處理的另一個爭論，
05:16
is noncompliant and nonresponsive
third-party internet companies.
third-party internet companies.
97
304673
4333
是那些不服從且不回應的
第三方網路公司。
第三方網路公司。
05:21
And oh -- by the way,
98
309030
1702
喔——順便一提，
05:22
even in consenting relationships,
99
310756
2123
即使是在同意的關係中，
05:24
just because you get
a nude photo or a naked pic,
a nude photo or a naked pic,
100
312903
3349
你取得了一張裸照或裸圖，
05:28
does not give you the right to share it,
101
316276
2252
也不表示你有權分享它，
05:31
even [without] the intent to do harm.
102
319053
2134
即使你並沒有任何傷害人的意圖。
05:34
Back to my case,
103
322157
1625
回到我的案例，
05:35
which happens to be further complicated
104
323806
1953
它剛好又更複雜，
05:37
because he was stalking and harassing me
from another country,
from another country,
105
325783
3167
因為他是從另一個國家
跟蹤和騷擾我，
跟蹤和騷擾我，
05:40
making it nearly impossible
to get help here.
to get help here.
106
328974
3966
我在這裡幾乎是不可能得到協助。
05:45
But wait a minute --
isn't the internet international?
isn't the internet international?
107
333441
2993
但，等一下——
網路不是國際的嗎？
網路不是國際的嗎？
05:48
Shouldn't we have
some sort of policy in place
some sort of policy in place
108
336458
2468
我們難道沒有已經實施的政策
05:50
that broadly protects us,
regardless to borders or restrictions?
regardless to borders or restrictions?
109
338950
3860
可以廣泛地保護我們，
跨越國界或不受限制？
跨越國界或不受限制？
05:55
I just couldn’t give up;
I had to keep fighting.
I had to keep fighting.
110
343800
2864
我就是無法放棄；
我得要繼續奮鬥。
我得要繼續奮鬥。
05:59
So I willingly, on three occasions,
111
347149
3587
所以，我出於自願，在三個場合，
06:02
allowed for the invasion
of both my cell phone and my laptop
of both my cell phone and my laptop
112
350760
4539
允許國土安全部以及牙買加大使館
06:07
by the Department of Homeland Security
and the Jamaican Embassy
and the Jamaican Embassy
113
355323
3960
侵入我的手機和筆記型電腦，
06:11
for thorough forensic investigation,
114
359307
2222
以做徹底的鑑識調查，
06:13
because I had maintained
all of the evidence.
all of the evidence.
115
361553
2746
因為我還保有所有的證據。
06:17
I painstakingly shared my private parts
with the all-male investigative team.
with the all-male investigative team.
116
365680
5278
我很難過地將我的私密處
分享給全是男性的調查團隊。
分享給全是男性的調查團隊。
06:23
And it was an embarrassing, humiliating
additional hoop to jump through.
additional hoop to jump through.
117
371735
4317
我又承受了這羞辱
又尷尬的額外磨難。
又尷尬的額外磨難。
06:29
But then something happened.
118
377315
1802
但接著，有影響產生了。
06:31
Jamaican authorities
actually arrested him.
actually arrested him.
119
379982
2934
牙買加當權機關真的逮捕了他。
06:35
He's now facing charges
under their malicious communications act,

120
383562
4838
他現在要面臨違反該國
惡意溝通法的指控，
惡意溝通法的指控，
06:40
and if found guilty, could face
thousands of dollars in fines

若被判有罪，可能會被
處以數千美元的罰金，
處以數千美元的罰金，
06:44
and up to 10 years in prison.
122
392741

以及最高十年有期徒刑。
06:46
And I've also learned that my case
is making history --
is making history --
123
394677
2599
我也得知，我的案例
創造了歷史——
創造了歷史——
06:49
it is the first international case

它是這種新型犯罪的
第一個國際案例。
第一個國際案例。
