Scandal in the ranks of the US Army, through a private group Facebook. Yesterday, the Center for Investigative Reporting released a report revealing that the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) has launched a research για εκατοντάδες πεζοναύτες μετά την ανακάλυψη μιας μυστικής ομάδας στο Facebook που χρησιμοποιήθηκε για την ανάρτηση γυμνών φωτογραφιών γυναικών της services.
The report, written by Thomas Brennan, founder of a nonprofit news agency called The War Horse, revealed that images of servicewomen shared on a private Facebook group called Marines United, either posted on the site itself, or via links from a folder to Google Drive. The group consists of approximately 30.000 members, and was originally founded in 2015.
It is open only to male members of the US Marine Corps, Navy and British Royal Marines. According to a description by a retired mariner at Reddit, this Facebook group has a history with this type of content, with "photos of girls posted without their permission, revenge porn, rape, racist comments and more."
Brennan's post emphasizes that the images or links posted to the group have attracted more than 2.500 comments, some of which urge for more photos. In some cases, the images are accompanied by information about their "subjects", such as names, rank and what they serve.
