Bill > HB3073

This bill creates a new law in Oklahoma that establishes a misdemeanor and felony for the dissemination or publication of certain digitized images without the written consent of the depicted person. The bill defines "digitization" as a still or video image that is altered to appear realistic using images or computer-generated images of a person other than the one depicted. The bill also requires a disclosure that the image is a digitization, and failure to do so results in a misdemeanor. The bill sets a minimum punishment of one year in prison and a $5,000 fine for a second offense. The bill is effective starting July 1, 2024, and an emergency clause is included.
