This bill establishes new legal provisions regarding the creation and dissemination of digitized or synthetic media that depicts the name, image, voice, or likeness of individuals without their written consent. It makes such actions unlawful if done with the intent to deceive and cause emotional, financial, or physical harm. Violators may face misdemeanor charges, with penalties including fines or imprisonment, while more severe violations that result in significant financial harm or are used for extortion can lead to felony charges. Additionally, the bill allows for civil damages to be pursued by victims, including recovery of court costs and attorney fees.

The bill also mandates that any political advertising using digitized or synthetic media must disclose this fact, with penalties for non-compliance. Media advertising agencies are required to obtain attestations from content creators regarding the use of such media, which must be retained for at least 24 months. The bill defines key terms related to digitization and dissemination, and it includes an emergency clause for immediate enactment upon passage.
