The bill amends the Uniform Civil Remedies for Unauthorized Disclosure of Intimate Images Act by redefining key terms and expanding the scope of liability to include images created through computer generation or digital manipulation. Specifically, it clarifies that "depicted individual" now encompasses those represented in images altered by digital means, and it introduces a new definition of "private" to include images created without consent through such manipulations. Additionally, the bill emphasizes that consent must be affirmative and voluntary, and it establishes that individuals retain a reasonable expectation of privacy regarding intimate images, even if created in public settings.

Furthermore, the bill outlines the conditions under which a depicted individual can pursue legal action against someone who intentionally discloses or threatens to disclose their intimate image without consent. It specifies that harm can include physical, economic, and emotional distress, and it reinforces that prior consent to the creation or previous sharing of the image does not imply consent for future disclosures. The original sections of the law are repealed to incorporate these updates, ensuring that the legal framework remains current and comprehensive in addressing unauthorized disclosures of intimate images.
