On Monday, the house mostly approved Bipartisan legislation to criminalize non-consumption sharing of sexually explicit photos and videos of others-including the pictures of the AI known as “Hlubfake” -a ordered them to quickly remove the platforms.
The vote 409 to 2 clarified measures for President Trump, who was expected to sign him quickly.
The aim of legislation, known as Act It Down Act, is to take action to share material known as “revenge of porn”, which requires social media companies and online platforms to remove such pictures within two days of their announcement.
The measures that linked the unlikely coalition of conservatives and liberals in both parties in February unanimously passed the Senate. It seems that the support of Mr. Trump, who mentioned it during his common address of Congress during his joint address of Congress, smoked his way by Congress.
Legislation established by Senators Ted Cruz, Republican from Texas and Amy Klobuchar, Democrat of Minnesota, is the first Internet content to clean up the Congress since 2018, when the legislators approved legislation in the fight against online sex trading. And although it focuses on porn and deep revenge, the law is considered an important step towards regulating Internet companies that have escaped government control for decades.
The stunning support of ACT Teact It It It It Its emphasizes growing anger among lawmakers on social media platforms, such as Facebook, Instagram and X for hosting misinformation and harmful content, especially pictures that damage children and teenagers.
Although the vengeance of porn and deep sanctions affect both adults and minors, both were particularly strong for adolescent girls, because the spread of widely available “nudification applications” stimulated the boys to secretly invent sexually explicit images of their classmates and then orbit.
Representative of Maria Elvira Salazar, Florida Republican, who presented the accompanying law on Monday, said that the bill would stop the abuse and harassment of young girls who “spread like fire” online.
“It is incredibly ill to use pictures – face, voice, form – young, vulnerable women, manipulate them, blackmail them and publicly humiliate them only for fun, only for revenge,” Mrs. Salazar said.
Bill’s passage also reflects similar efforts in state houses across the country. Every state In addition to South Carolina Does a law criminalizing revenge porn. And at least 20 countries have laws dealing with sexually explicit deep instructions.
The measures that have undergone Monday on Monday is part of the annual bipartisan efforts of legislators to solve pornography Deepfake. Mr. Cruz and Mrs. Klobuchar first presented the bill last year when he passed the Senate but died in the Republican House. This year he was re -introduced and he seemed to get dynamics after he had attracted support from the first lady Melania Trump.
Last year, Alexandria’s Okasio-Cortez, a millennium Democrat from New York, introduced a legislation that would allow those who are depicted in sexually explicit deep, to sue people who created and shared them. This law was not re -established this year.
In recent years, lawmakers have gathered around several accounts aimed at protecting children online from sexual exploitation, bullying and addictive algorithms. In January 2024, the chairmen of META, Tiktok and other technology companies testified from angry legislators and defended their platforms.
Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of META, was forced to apologize to parents who lost their children from online damage.
Some speech advocates warned that the measures could cool down and claim that such a law could enforce the removal of legitimate images along with non -consumption sexual images.
“The best intentions cannot replace the dangerous consequences of the law for institutional speech and privacy online,” said Becca Branum, deputy director of the free statement project for Democracy and Technology, research group.
Mrs. Branum added that the act Take Down was “a recipe for recovering weapons that risk permanent progress in the fight against sexual abuse based on the image”.
