The Delhi High Court ruled that consent for sex does not grant the right to share private videos on social media. This decision came in response to a case where an individual shared intimate videos of a person without their consent. The Court emphasized that sharing such content without consent is a violation of privacy rights, even if both parties previously consented to sexual activity. The ruling underscores the importance of protecting individuals' dignity and privacy, aligning with existing laws against voyeurism, cyberbullying, and online harassment.
