In Public Interest: Content or crime? Digital voyeurism in public spaces | Bengaluru | Namma Metro

Women filmed without consent. Videos posted online for likes. And platforms that look away. In Bengaluru, two disturbing incidents have put the spotlight back on women’s safety in public spaces. A man was arrested for secretly recording women on the metro. Around the same time, an anonymous Instagram account was found uploading voyeuristic videos of women shot without their knowledge or consent. In this episode of In Public Interest, Shivani and Shabbir unpack the disturbing trend of digital voyeurism, where public transport becomes a stage for harassment, and social media becomes a marketplace for non-consensual content.
