The Limitations of Reactive Privacy Laws in Womens Online Safety

Many of the current privacy laws operate on a reactive basis, addressing violations after they happen rather than preventing them proactively. This approach is particularly problematic for women, for whom online harassment and privacy breaches can have immediate and lasting effects. Proactive measures, including better regulation of online spaces and preemptive restrictions on potentially harmful content, are crucial for enhancing women's safety online.
