FINALBeschreibung
The Spanish DPA has imposed a fine of EUR 6,000 on a private individual. The person had shared a video on Twitter showing images of a sexual assault by a man on a woman. The purpose of sharing the video was to draw attention to domestic violence against women. The DPA considers the sharing to be unlawful. Even though the person may have had a legitimate interest in sharing the video, the victim's right to privacy prevails.
