Producing and/or Distributing Intimate Images of a Person without its Consent
Modern time created different types of new crimes, which was unknowable to the theory of criminal law before. One of these new crimes is unlawful distribution of intimate images of person in public without its consent, including distribution in Internet. In the world practice this action usually named as “nonconsensual porn”. Nowadays this type of unlawful actions actively studied in foreign law systems, some of these recently criminalized it, but in Russian law “nonconsensual porn” is not so popular topic for researching in science and also in legal practice, although the act itself exists. Dispositions of a number of articles of Chapters 19 and 25 of Special part of the Criminal Code of Russian Federation just partially cover the researched act, therefore, the need to change the law is already brewing due to the need of modernization of criminal legislation in connection with various ways of committing such a crime
