Victims of sexually explicit photos or video can now file a law suit based on a ban against angry
ex-lovers exploiting others on social media or through emails as part of break up revenge
The bill is called “revenge porn” banning the unauthorized use of nude photos or video with sexual content and sexual exposure. In a number of limited states perpetrators can be prosecuted. A victim who finds an compromising selfie online can file a take-down notice to the hosting website in addition, a conviction would be considered a misdemeanor possibly resulting in a 6 month jail sentence and a $1000.00 fine.
Since 2003 California and New Jersey, “has had a invasion-of-privacy law aimed at video voyeurs, people who secretly videotape others naked or having sex without their consent. Other states that may consider revenge porn legislation include Florida, Texas, Wisconsin and Georgia”.
