relative to prohibiting certain uses of deepfakes and creating a private claim of action.

This bill prohibits the use of deepfakes in specific contexts and establishes a private legal claim for individuals harmed by them. It directly affects platforms hosting user-generated content and the people whose images or voices are manipulated without consent. The key mechanism involves amending existing state laws to clarify how interactive computer services are treated regarding third-party content while creating new avenues for victims to seek damages. By defining these protections and liabilities, the legislation aims to provide clearer legal recourse against deceptive synthetic media.
