RCMP in Manitoba are apologizing over a recent social media post that warned people about sharing intimate images of themselves with others. The post also read, "this Valentine's keep your privates private" and included a pixelated photo labelled "censored." Some social media users criticized the message as blaming victims whose images are used without their consent, such as in cases of revenge porn. Paul Manaigre, a media relations officer with the Manitoba division, said Monday. Manaigre said the post was part of a broader series of tweets RCMP issued to promote internet safety.
