People are allowed to want to divorce without it being referred to as "where he sticks his weiner". I think what grosses me out is that revenge porn was laid thickly on top of this that people just actively ignored.

No they're not. Getting a divorce doesn't give you the right to control how other people talk about your divorce.

People care about revenge porn because it hurts vulnerable people (i.e. the vast majority of us.) People don't give a shit about revenge porn about people who aren't vulnerable in any way.

I'm not a fan of Bezos or his companies but these are objectively shitty takes.

Obviously the discussion here is in terms of civility and respecting people's privacy, not 'control'.

God how I wish we still lived in that world…

Not a fan of Bezos by any means imaginable, but I think that the revenge porn thing that happened to him was the work of a state actor, more exactly of Saudi Arabia.

Not saying that that makes it better, quite the contrary, just that most probably it wasn’t something personal, just a raison d’etat thing.
