I had literally told nobody about it in college." During the course of the conversation, she said that she knew about the photograph. I mentioned that there are toxic men everywhere. "In 2018, a classmate of mine posted her #MeToo story when I offered my solidarity to her. Then, almost two years later, someone mentioned that they had seen it," she told News18. "I never told anyone about the picture I'd sent or that exchange. Gradually, she cut off contact with S as well. Manasi said that she did not entirely feel comfortable after her exchange with S, and decided to stop attending debating society meetings. While Manasi had consensually sent the photo, she had hoped that it would be deleted, or at least, kept private. Before the exchange, S and Manasi were friends, was part of the same debating club at the university together. She felt during the course of the conversation that she was manipulated into sending the picture. Speaking to News18, Manasi said that she had exchanged an intimate picture of herself with S, in 2015 while texting him. She said she found out about them recently. In the tweets, Manasi*, who uses the Twitter name Aiyoobrows, mentioned that there was a Google Drive with photos of her. According to sources, the drive was started sometime around 2016, although the exact date remains unknown. The other student they called out was S's friend- let's call him K, who was a student at JU’s economics department then. The women wrote that the Google drive had been an 'open secret' in JU, albeit, no one really had evidence to implicate the men previously.
Soon after the tweet went viral, several women wrote about their encounters with two former students of Jadavpur University (JU). He had allegedly given access to the photos to a few of his friends, students of the same university.
#GOOGLE DRIVE NUDES SERIES#
The series of tweets mentioned that the idea of this particular Google drive was started by a student of Kolkata's prominent educational institution, Jadavpur University (JU)- let's call him S. According to the tweets, the drive, which had photos of women stored without their consent, had been used to threaten victims in the past. It all began when a Twitter user named Aiyoobrows accused some men in Kolkata of "using semi-nude and nude pictures of women in a Google drive and circulating it among their friends." The tweet said that these men had been involved in activities quite similar to that of the notorious Instagram group, 'Bois Locker Room'. Just days after a private Instagram group 'Bois Locker Room' consisting a bunch of Delhi's schoolgoing kids was exposed for misusing photos of minor girls and propagating rape culture and casual sexism, a similar incident came to light in Kolkata.
