In the last week or so, 10 out of the 25 most popular cameos using my face are various fetishes, including one where I’m a centaur-woman pregnant with octoplets. It’s not just me, either. I’ve seen this kind of content made with cameos of other women: female creators, another woman tech reporter, and a female employee of a prominent venture-capital firm.

**I don’t get why anyone is surprised **

    In a situation where someone doesn’t understand the implications and a corporation can make money of their misfortune. That pretty much describes most of social media.

      Love this bit

      But there is something different and unsettling here: It’s people being able to use my face (easily) to create content for potential sexual gratification without my consent.

      But she did consent when she allowed people to use her face. I’m not saying what those people are doing with it are morally right but she consented when she clicked the box allowing cameos.
