A scandal emerged in Australian news, about risque and revealing photos of more than 400 Adelaide women and teenagers — some allegedly under the age of consent — being shared online, without permission, by a US website.

The Adelaide Advertiser this week revealed police were investigating after hundreds of Australian women and teenagers had their nude images shared plastered on a US “revenge porn” website.

One of the victims messaged the site's moderator, and his reply was shocking: “F--k off you autistic whore ... you cannot do anything to stop us,” the user responsible for sharing the photos replied.

But it wasn't the person who made the website that caused the biggest ruckus. Apparently, the villain here is Channel 7's Sunrise, who put this massage on their Facebook fan page.

Clementine Ford, a well-known commentator and women’s advocate, was appalled with the station putting the blame on the victim and defending the sexual predators responsible for sharing the revenge pornography. Her bathroom selfie saying "Hey Sunrise, Get Fucked" has reached over 40,000 shares, 203,000 likes and 46,000 comments.

The battle with the disgusting website continued. After some victims asserted they were under the age of consent and the sharing of images therefore constituted child pornography, it prompted a message from the person responsible for the website. “Trying to use imaginary child pornography to further your own ends is disgusting, if it worked on some other sites it certainly will not work here,” the moderator wrote. “(This site) is hosted in the United States, not Australia ... the United States, for its part, still has some freedom left.”

The moderator told the women they should approach “the owners” of the photos and seek their deletion, “instead of drivelling nonsense about how 25-year-old women are 11”. The officials made it clear that there's not much they can do about it: "We tell kids that as soon as you choose to share an image, you lose control of it — but then an offender is prosecuted for this crime and they don’t even go to jail." - said Internet safety advocate Sonya Ryan, from the Carly Ryan Foundation
