It was a nightmare made real when Mathilda Huang's photos were taken without consent, doctored into sexual imagery, and shared online.

This counts as image-based sexual abuse or IBSA, which last year, was the top concern among youth surveyed about online harms.

Mathilda shares her experience as a victim of IBSA and Natalie Chia of SG Her Empowerment gives insights into what victims can do to deal with perpetrators, and what more has to be done to combat such abuse.
