How have you made determination this is "abuse of women"? It's abuse of DMCA because complainant can dish it out, but wants to silence any backlash. Period.
"Tip: In general, the photographer and NOT the subject of a photograph is the actual rights holder of the resulting photograph." one of many reasons why this was not a valid DMCA takedown request.
Don't put pics on public sites if you don't want them seen. The point is, this was abuse of DMCA. The complainant should be sanctioned for filing a false DMCA complaint & blaming Twitter for her inability to read what she was signing/research DMCA procedures. She just wasted everyone's time. If ya can't take the heat, don't get involved in trying to remove other peoples freedoms. Or don't cry victim when there's backlash.
I've read the story, and there is also quite a backstory. This was an invalid DMCA filing, period. It appears the complainant simply did not like the tweets being sent about her. Sometimes that's just called Twitter-not harassment. The pic complained about appears to have come from a FB account, so not stolen. And the use appears to have been covered by fair use. That's all. In any event, Twitter clearly advises DMCA filer that personal info may be sent to party accused of infringement. Complainant should have been aware of what she was signings when she filed complaint. On the other hand, I wonder where complainant got the screenshot of the messages she alleges were sent between the infringers? Very suspicious. IMO.

Wrong and wrong.
Re: Re: Re: Re:
What? DMCA has nothing to do with harassment. Complainant incorrectly used DMCA takedown. That is all.

Yes, I agree that filing a false DMCA takedown request is going out of ones way to intimidate another into silence.

Doesn't appear from story that the pic in question was a portrait or selfie. Abuse of DMCA.

What's all this bitterness got to do with abuse of DMCA? Nothing.
