A new controversy has erupted on social media, centering on TikToker Maryam Faisal, whose alleged private video has reportedly been leaked online. This incident has not only sparked outrage but also reignited the conversation about the growing trend of privacy violations against female content creators in Pakistan.
Over recent years, several female TikTokers, including Manahil Malik and Imsha Rehman, have fallen victim to similar privacy breaches. These leaks often result in immense psychological harm and reputational damage to the victims. The latest allegations involving Maryam Faisal have drawn further attention to the alarming lack of digital privacy safeguards in the country.
Experts suggest that such leaks are frequently motivated by blackmail, personal vendettas, or attempts to defame individuals. Victims often report that these videos are obtained through unethical means, with the intent of either exerting control or seeking cheap publicity. Despite the outrage such incidents provoke, a section of social media continues to irresponsibly share and sensationalize these videos, exacerbating the harm caused.
Social media has been flooded with comments on Maryam Faisal’s case. While some users express sympathy and call for stricter regulations, others perpetuate victim-blaming narratives. Statements like “every girl on social media is immoral” reflect the deep-rooted biases that hinder meaningful discourse on these issues.
For instance, tweets in Urdu criticizing societal decline or mocking the victims demonstrate the urgent need for digital literacy and ethical awareness. Sharing or promoting explicit content not only violates individual privacy but also undermines basic human decency.

Pakistan’s Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act (PECA) outlines strict penalties for cybercrimes, including the non-consensual sharing of explicit content. However, enforcement remains a significant challenge. Experts emphasize the importance of raising public awareness about privacy laws and encouraging victims to seek legal recourse. Reporting such incidents to relevant authorities instead of spreading them further is essential to curb this menace.
The controversy surrounding Maryam Faisal highlights the broader issue of digital safety and online harassment. It calls for collective efforts from individuals, law enforcement, and digital platforms to foster a safer online environment. Upholding ethical standards and respecting others’ privacy should be paramount in our increasingly connected world.
It’s time for society to stand against this toxic trend and ensure that victims receive the support they deserve, rather than becoming further casualties of public scrutiny and victim-blaming.
