Who this affects: This bill directly affects victims of revenge porn and sexual deepfakes, who would gain a federal legal path to get harmful images taken down and perpetrators prosecuted. It also creates new obligations for social media companies and other platforms that host user-generated content, and expands the FTC's role in policing these platforms.
Why this matters: Nonconsensual intimate images and sexual deepfakes can devastate people's lives, causing lasting emotional harm, damaged reputations, and financial loss. State laws vary widely and often fail to keep up with AI-generated fakes. This bill creates a single national standard that covers both real images and deepfakes, gives victims a clear path to get content removed quickly, and holds platforms accountable for acting on removal requests.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
