MyOwn PAC Working to address technology-facilitated violence & abuse

My Own is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to shaping and informing public understanding of intimate privacy in the digital age and addressing societal responses to technology-facilitated violence and abuse. The impacts of these crimes are profound, extending beyond individual harm to erode trust, perpetuate trauma, and undermine social fabric. Despite growing awareness of these abuses

, systemic challenges persist, including gaps in legal frameworks and societal norms that often dismiss or trivialize online violence. Addressing this pervasive and rapidly growing problem demands a holistic approach that centers the voices and experiences of all stakeholders (including those who have done harm), while simultaneously holding digital platforms, policymakers, and society as a whole accountable for fostering safer and more inclusive online spaces. MyOwn is working to address these problems though: public education campaigns, robust survivor support programs, working with policymakers to develop and enact comprehensive state legislation, and working as a media resource.
