dāng当kē jì科技shāng hài伤害nǚ xìng女性：wǎng luò网络bào lì暴力yǔ与ní rì lì yà尼日利亚de的shù zì数字ruò diǎn弱点
In Nigeria, many women often face insults, stalking, and malicious attacks when they go online.
Social platforms were originally meant to help people communicate, do business, and make friends, but now they have also become places that make people afraid.
Many women are attacked because of their appearance, religion, accent, political views, and identity, and Black women often face even more harassment.
Now, AI tools like Grok are making the problem worse.
People use them to edit photos and create sexualized images without consent; even ordinary photos can be altered and then quickly spread online.
Nigeria’s laws and platform moderation are not strong enough, and many people do not get help even after reporting abuse, so bad actors can keep hurting others more easily.
Platform algorithms also make this content visible to more people and can even help the posters make money.
In this way, AI is not creating a new problem; it is amplifying the harm that already existed.
To change this situation, tech companies should not only respond after something goes wrong; they should protect users from the start when designing products, especially women’s privacy, safety, and right to choose.
