The Postal Police communicated that the search warrants issued by Rome Prosecutor’s Office towards the people involved in management and in theactivation of the infamous Facebook page “Mia Moglie”, which hit the headlines nationally in recent months due to its contents sexists And misogynists. Among the people identified are one 52 year old woman and a 24 year old boywhile the account holder with whom the page was managed appears to be a 70 year old man from Lecce, died in March last year.
The page, which had over 32,000 memberswas shut down by Meta in August, shortly after being brought to media attention thanks to a report from Carolina Capriawho manages the Instagram page l’a wrote una female. The existence of this group, in which the members shared Images of women referred to as wives And comrades “probably without the consent of the people portrayed” – as indicated by the State Police – was at the center of a bitter public debatefueled by the discovery of additional groups and portals sharing similar material. In many cases the profiles of men those who shared the photos were anonymous, while in others they could be traced back to real people. It is believed that most of the photos featured were actually taken secretly and published without authorization of the women concerned; there was also no shortage of “stolen” shots from well-known profiles and images generated with artificial intelligence.
As explained to Fanpage.it by the lawyer Guido Scorza, Member of the Guarantor for the protection of personal data, the publication of photographs without consent is a crime which can lead to “not light” sanctionsin order to prevent it from being replicated. The group probably resisted for years moving in one gray area of the Facebook regulation: “This group was an anomaly. I followed the case, even though we didn’t actually intervene. I imagine that the group has managed to move, even for several years, because it has never crossed the border of the sexually explicit. There weren’t just nude photos, so to speak, which instead would have triggered a block from the algorithm”, commented the lawyer to our microphones.
My Wife, the first suspects are here: a man and a woman manage the group
