  Brazil is home to over 200M people, the majority of which have access to the
Internet. Over 11M Brazilians live in favelas, or informal settlements with no
outside government regulation, often ruled by narcos or militias. Victims of
intimate partner violence (IPV) in these communities are made extra vulnerable
not only by lack of access to resources, but by the added layer of violence
caused by criminal activity and police confrontations. In this paper, we use an
unintended harms framework to analyze the unique online privacy needs of favela
women and present research questions that we urge tech abuse researchers to
consider.
