From the creators of The Tinder Swindler, Netflix have launched their newest docuseries following one woman’s journey as she took down The Most Hated Man on the Internet, also known as the King of revenge porn, Hunter Moore.

Charlotte Laws, whose daughter was one of Moore’s victims – violated by her emails being hacked into and her unsent naked photos being posted online, fought Moore to not only get her own daughter’s pictures taken off his website, IsAnyoneUp.com, but worked to get justice for several of his other victims.

The three-part docuseries follows Charlotte as she fights for justice for her daughter Kayla and for the other victims, working with the FBI and eventually landing Moore in prison.

Over a two-year battle, Charlotte finally brought Moore to justice, and doing so leant her the title ‘the Erin Brockovich of revenge porn.’

While the Netflix series may actually be titled as if it were all about Moore, the programme is more so about Moore’s victims, and Charlotte.

But who is Charlotte Laws?

Aside from being the centre of the documentary and the woman who brought Hunter Moore down, Charlotte was actually once in Hollywood, and even dated singer Tom Jones for three years.

When she found out about Kayla’s pictures in 2012, she had been working as an investigator for an insurance company, but has also worn multiple hats of American author, animal rights activist, actress and even a former Los Angeles politician.

She has also had stints hosting various talk shows as well as contributed to BBC News, and began her acting career in her 20s, while also performing as a stand-up comic at The Comedy Store in Los Angeles.

She later went on to work as a columnist for publications include The Washington Post and The Los Angeles Times before releasing her own memoir titled Rebel in High Heels in 2015, which details her fight against revenge porn.

In the memoir, Charlotte revealed her three-year romance with singer Tom Jones, admitting that he was her first boyfriend that she dated when she was 18.

She later married English barrister Charles Parselle, who also features in the Netflix docuseries, as he helps his wife play detective and fight for justice against revenge porn.

The Most Hated Man on the Internet is available to watch on Netflix.
