YouTuber Chrissy Chambers Wins Revenge Porn Case, Gets Engaged to Bria

  •  Chrissy Chambers recently won her revenge porn case in court against her ex-boyfriend, who uploaded three revenge porn clips to the Internet which were taken without either her knowledge or consent. Chrissy Chambers’ fight to get them taken down and to sue the offender who uploaded them has been an uphill battle — for one, revenge porn laws were established in England after 2009 — when the clips were initially uploaded. What’s more, her ex-boyfriend owned the rights to the videos, so she could not get the websites to take them down (whether the websites should have done it anyway is a different, and extremely troubling, discussion to have down the line).  The experience left Chrissy Chambers traumatized and dealing with post-traumatic stress disorder and alcohol abuse. “There’s not an area of my life it hasn’t touched. It has affected my life in every way imaginable, and I’m sure it will continue to for the rest of my life,” Chambers told the BBC. Her victory is an important one, as it is the first case of its kind to be brought to court in England, and the offender will pay Chrissy her legal fees and a substantial amount of money in damages.  On the same day as winning the case, Chrissy got engaged to her longtime girlfriend Bria Kam. We wish the couple the best.  Want more stories like these? Follow us on Twitter at @WhatsTrending.
