Sexual material; consent; synthetic depiction
Summary
This bill requires commercial websites that publish sexual material to verify that all depicted individuals have provided explicit informed consent and were at least 18 years old at the time of creation, with records maintained for seven years. The bill prohibits the disclosure of intimate images without consent and establishes criminal penalties for unlawful disclosure, while also allowing the attorney general and depicted individuals to pursue civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day of violation. The legislation specifically addresses synthetic sexual depictions created through artificial intelligence or digital manipulation, treating them the same as actual intimate images for consent and privacy purposes.
