The bill establishes the crime of disclosing explicit synthetic media, which includes the unauthorized sharing of deepfake content that depicts identifiable individuals in sexual contexts without their consent. It outlines specific circumstances under which a person can be charged, such as when the disclosure is intended to cause emotional distress, intimidation, or financial gain. Penalties for violating this law vary based on the number of offenses, with fines and imprisonment terms increasing for repeat offenders and for cases involving minors.
Additionally, the bill includes definitions for key terms such as "disclose," "explicit synthetic media," and "identifiable individual." It also clarifies that certain disclosures are exempt from liability, such as those made for reporting unlawful conduct or for legitimate research. The bill includes an immediate effective date and specifies that it applies to offenses committed on or after its effective date.
