flag Italian women combat websites sharing their photos with obscene language, as the government considers a femicide law.

Italian women, from workers to politicians, are fighting against websites that share unauthorized photos with obscene language. The issue gained prominence when a Facebook page, "Mia Moglie," featuring spouses without consent, was taken down. A more persistent site, with 200,000 users, targets prominent women like Premier Giorgia Meloni. The site has been active for over two decades and includes photos of public figures, often with explicit comments. In response, Italy is considering a draft law to define and punish femicide with life imprisonment, though critics argue it does not address deeper cultural issues.
