United States First Lady Melania Trump joined President Donald Trump in signing the 바카라Take It Down Act바카라 into law that criminalises online sexual exploitation through real or deepfake content, also called "revenge porn."
The law will require companies to remove the content within 48 hours which is posted on the internet without the person바카라s consent.
Melania Trump, since Donald Trump바카라s second term, made her first public appearance during a visit to Capitol Hill to lobby for this bill, stating that children need to be protected from "mean-spirited and hurtful online behaviour," BBC quoted.
바카라AI and social media are the digital candy for the next generation, sweet addictive and engineered to have an impact on the cognitive development of our children,바카라 she said, as per AP.
바카라But unlike sugar, these new technologies can be weaponized, shape beliefs and, sadly, affect emotions and even be deadly.바카라
As the US President signed the bill, he asked Melania Trump to sign the bill too. 바카라C바카라mon, sign it anyway,바카라 he said. 바카라She deserves to sign it.바카라 Her signature is symbolic.
"Anyone who intentionally distributes explicit images without the subject's consent will face up to three years in prison," Trump said.
Revenge porn refers to the act of sharing an intimate image without consent of the person involved, and can comprise AI-generated Deepfake porn.
However, there is worry amongst digital rights and free speech activists that the law could lead to censorship.
"While protecting victims of these heinous privacy invasions is a legitimate goal, good intentions alone are not enough to make good policy," BBC quoted digital rights advocacy group Electronic Frontier Foundation.
"As currently drafted, the Act mandates a notice-and-takedown system that threatens free expression, user privacy, and due process, without addressing the problem it claims to solve."
