A
BILL
to
This bill creates new criminal offences for recording and sharing intimate images without consent. It makes it illegal to take, possess, or distribute sexually explicit photos or videos of someone without their permission, including 'deepfake' pornography created using AI. The legislation aims to protect people from sexual abuse and harassment, with penalties including fines and imprisonment. It covers both cases where images are shared maliciously and situations involving voyeurism or nonconsensual filming.
Presented by Wera Hobhouse.
