Bill Summary

Crimes & offenses, prohibits a person from creating a private image without consent

AI Summary

This bill amends the Code of Alabama to prohibit two new crimes: (1) distributing a private image of an individual without their consent, and (2) creating a private image of an individual without their consent. A "private image" is defined as a recording of an individual engaged in sexual conduct, including nudity, where the individual had a reasonable expectation of privacy. The bill also provides certain defenses and specifies that the crimes can be committed in any county where the image was received or the victim or defendant resides. The bill excludes internet service providers and technology developers from liability for violations committed by others using their services or products.
