Crimes and punishments; modifying provisions related to obscenity and child sexual abuse material. Effective date.
SB 1982 updates Oklahoma's legal definitions of child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and obscenity. It expands "child sexual abuse material" to include computer-generated images or altered depictions that appear to show minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct, and clarifies that each individual image constitutes a separate offense. The bill also modifies definitions of "obscene" material and "unlawful pornography" to align with current standards, while adding a severability clause to ensure unaffected parts of the law remain valid if challenged. This directly affects individuals distributing or possessing CSAM, including digital content that mimics minors, and requires internet service providers to take action to address such material.
