Cyberflashing is a huge problem. Figures from domestic abuse charity Refuge suggest that one in three UK women have experienced online abuse or harassment.

According to dating app Bumble, more than one in three (35%) women have received an unsolicited nude image while at work, and over one in four (27%) have received one while travelling on public transport. Almost one in five (19%) have received images just while walking down the street.

However, over half of young people who receive unwanted sexual images online don’t report the abuse, a separate report by University College London and the University of Kent found.

Currently, victims of cyberflashing and image-based abuse receive lifelong anonymity under the Sexual Offences Act from the point they report the offence, and the landmark case will hopefully encourage other victims to come forward.

The first person in England has been convicted of cyberflashing and jailed for 66 weeks
