Dominatrix turns tech founder to combat revenge porn
Tech founder Madelaine Thomas, a former dominatrix, created Image Angel to combat revenge porn after her personal experiences with intimate image abuse. Using invisible forensic watermarking, her tech tracks abusers and has won awards for its innovation in tech safety. The technology aims to protect victims from the stigma of intimate image abuse and deter potential abusers, with hopes to make a significant impact in the fight against tech-facilitated gender-based abuse.
