Short of bankrupting herself to cover legal fees, social media was Ratajkowski’s only recourse.“I tweeted about what a violation this book was, how he was using and abusing my image for profit without my consent,” Ratajkowski writes.

In another essay, Ratajkowski recalls a sponsored vacation that she takes with her husband to a luxury resort in the Maldives, where she obsessively checks the “like”s she’s receiving on her Instagram photos. On the beach, she spots a group of Muslim women in head scarves; she reads an article about Kim Kardashian; she wonders why she’s selling herself for a free vacation.
