Plain-English Summary

The legislation would make it illegal to share intimate photos or videos of someone without their permission, creating federal penalties for this violation of privacy. The law would protect people from having their private sexual images distributed online or elsewhere without consent, addressing a growing problem often called "revenge porn." Anyone convicted could face criminal charges, while victims would have legal recourse against those who share such images.
