Sting posted on social media - help!
Notifications OFF
Hi everyone,
The sting carried out on my ex partner was broadcast on social media at the end of January. It's been horrendous. It went viral and we live in a relatively small community. Everybody knows, has seen it or shared it.
The video is particularly focussed on making repeated reference and comparisons to my daughter, including her age. People here know who she is, the comments make it clear though nobody has actually mentioned names.
Police have advised that the video doesn't constitute a crime against her but it is a gross breach of GDPR, so a civil matter.
Has anyone got any advice or experience for making contact with the group in question to request its removal due to GDPR?
Im fully aware that the horse has bolted but she doesn't deserve to be bullied throughout her adolescence for his actions. Removing it off their platforms would be a start. As he's now on bail under investigation the video has served its purpose?
If their stated aim is to protect children, they have totally failed to protect my child in this case.
Thanks x

If the video is being hosted on a particular platform, such as YouTube or Facebook, the first step would be to report it to them.
You might also want to look into Googles right to privacy, to get any links to the video removed.
If the video is on website, and it is a civil matter, then a warning letter from a solicitor might be a good idea, since the groups that do this are unlikely to respond to a polite request.

Unfortunately no one seems to care about the innocents in this sort of thing . These 'groups' seem to work within an inch of the law and in our experience they seem to be untouchable. Everyone we have met throughout this journey of nearly 4 years openly despises them - Police, Courts, Judge etc yet no one will do anything about the cynical ways they operate. I am so sorry you're and your daughter are trying to navigate this dreadful situation xx
