I’m really glad they had this march and I hope the government actually does something.
The law that was previously used, access to a computer with criminal or dishonest intent, was ruled to not be applicable when using ones own phone/computer so all upskirt photos would be legal now. The govt. said it will try to charge someone with breach of the peace, which is extremely vague and seems unlikely to stick.
Upskirt photos are a violation of privacy. This is not about a bit of flash from bending over. This is about people using devices like shoe cameras and planted mirrors to deliberately target girls in school uniforms as well as adult women and then uploading the photos to porn sites.
