Action for Women Facing AI Abuse
Colchester, Essex, United Kingdom
Aim
Accountability and legal consequences for those who subject women to image based abuse and hate crimes online.
What you’re funding…
This crowdfund supports a project dedicated to identifying and publicly naming individuals who engage in sustained misogynistic abuse online, using lawful, evidence based and investigative methods.
Misogyny flourishes online because anonymity shields repeat offenders and platforms consistently fail to act. This project aims to remove that shield carefully, accurately, and within the law.
Why this matters
Women are routinely told to ignore abuse, block it, or “log off.” Meanwhile, the same accounts reoffend, escalate and target others. Platforms respond slowly, if at all, and victims are left to absorb the weight.
As a woman with an online profile I have personally not just been subjected to AI “undressing” but sexual harassment, doxxing, cyber stalking and persistent rape and death threats some of which have translated into real life threats. As we all know, due to a rise in violence against women, abuse does not stay online. Most persistent offenders online are aware that I am a neurodivergent woman, a survivor of sexual violence and domestic abuse and that I live with PTSD as a consequence. Anononymity protects them from consequences. I aim to identify people via lawful methods and hold them accountable.
The lack of accountability and lack of will from the police to enforce the law has persistently left me feeling helpless to act and burdened by admin which never results in meaningful police action. Millions of women are being failed.
This project aims to shifts the burden.
I do not just want to seek justice for myself but for other women affected.
If someone chooses to publicly abuse women online, they should expect public accountability and legal action.
What the project will do
- Collect and verify publicly available evidence of misogynistic abuse
- Identify repeat offenders and coordinated behaviour across platforms
- Name individuals where evidence meets a clear public-interest threshold
- Publish findings responsibly, with documentation and context
- Where appropriate, share evidence with platforms, journalists, and legal bodies
Safeguards and standards
This project operates under strict rules:
- Evidence must be verifiable, archived, and legally defensible
- No threats or violence.
- No illegal publication of information.
- Legal and safeguarding advice will guide every stage. The fund will secure legal advice.
Naming is used as accountability, not punishment and only where behaviour is egregious, documented, and harmful.
Funds may be used to take legal action against the police if they target me, a woman, instead of male offenders.
Where the funds go…
Besides teaming up with other women’s groups, activism in the online sphere and pressuring the government to implement meaningful laws that protect women, the funds will go towards:
• Basic tools to detect and trace AI generated sexual images
Affordable software and open-source tools to understand how the images were created and where they are circulating.
• Secure evidence storage
Encrypted cloud storage to safely keep screenshots, links, timelines, and documentation for reporting legally.
• Specialist legal advice
Initial consultations with solicitors on image based abuse, harassment, and reporting routes.
• Digital forensics when needed
Paying for limited expert analysis to confirm that an image is AI generated (used only in cases where it strengthens a police or platform report).
• Research and documentation costs
Time, resources, and accessible tools to map the scale of AI based abuse and produce a clear, public report.
• Publication and awareness materials
Producing and sharing guidance so other women understand how to recognise AI image abuse and how to report it.
If you believe AI image abuse and misogyny shouldn’t be consequence free, please support this work.
