Breeze Liu has been a prominent advocate for victims. But even she struggled to scrub nonconsensual intimate images and videos of herself from the web.
The article details the ordeal of a startup founder, Liu, who faced years of explicit and nonconsensual images and videos hosted on Microsoft's Azure cloud services. Despite repeated requests, Microsoft initially ignored her pleas, leading Liu and her cofounder, Andrea Powell, to confront Microsoft's senior executives at a conference. This confrontation prompted Microsoft to remove the content. Microsoft later improved its processes and took legal action against those misusing its services. However, Liu's battle continues as some content remains online, highlighting ongoing challenges in digital safety.
