SB 382

Abstract

Amends the Code of Civil Procedure. Makes a technical change in the short title Section. Senate Floor Amendment No. 1 Deletes reference to: 735 ILCS 5/1-101 Adds reference to: 740 ILCS 190/5 740 ILCS 190/15 Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Civil Remedies for Nonconsensual Dissemination of Private Sexual Images Act. Changes the definition of "depicted individual" to mean an individual whose face or body (rather than only body) is shown, in whole or in part, in a private sexual image or digitally altered sexual image (rather than only a private sexual image). Defines "digitally altered sexual image" to mean any visual media, including any photograph, film, videotape digital recording, or other similar medium, that is created or substantially altered so that it would falsely appear to a reasonable person to be an authentic depiction of the appearance or conduct, or the absence of the appearance or conduct, of an individual depicted in the media. Provides that a person is not liable under the Act if the person proves that the dissemination of or a threat to disseminate a digitally altered sexual image was made in good faith, made in good faith in the reporting or investigation of unlawful conduct or unsolicited and unwelcome conduct, or related to a matter of public concern. Senate Floor Amendment No. 2 Adds an immediate effective date.
