WastelandCowboy 09/01/19 1:22:21 PM #1:	http://www.fox4news.com/news/texas/new-texas-laws-illegal-to-send-unsolicited-nude-photos Posted Aug 30 2019 01:48PM CDT Updated Aug 30 2019 01:55PM CDT As states push to criminalize the sharing of intimate photos to get revenge on former sex partners, Texas is teaming with Bumble to crack down on people who send unsolicited nude images on dating apps and elsewhere in cyberspace. The new Texas law banning so-called cyber flashing comes after state Rep. Morgan Meyer of Dallas collaborated with the Austin-based social and dating application company to shepherd a bill earlier this year. "They had a number of people who were using the app complaining about the sending of these images and they quickly realized there was no recourse," Meyer said, recalling how Bumble CEO Whitney Wolfe Herd approached him about crafting a measure. "There was nothing that could be done. It wasn't a criminal offense - although it was definitely digital sexual harassment." The law set to take effect Saturday forbids what is often characterized as technology-enabled sexual harassment. It makes electronic transmission of sexually explicit material a Class C misdemeanor with a fine of up to $500 if the person who received it hasn't given consent. Meyer said the law targeting unwanted images will apply to text messages, email, dating apps and social media. A 2017 survey by Pew Research Center found women encounter sexual harassment online at much higher rates than men. The study found 21% of women ages 18 to 29 report being sexually harassed online compared to 9% of men in the same age group. Roughly 53% of those women said someone has sent them explicit images they didn't ask for. Caroline Ellis Roche, Bumble's chief of staff, said the company plans to take the legislation to the federal level and other states in hopes of enacting it more broadly. The Cyber Civil Rights Initiative reports that 46 states have laws tackling so-called revenge porn, but almost none combat unsolicited sexually explicit images. A handful of other states have laws criminalizing the electronic messaging of lewd content, but most of them are linked to the sender's intentions. Washington, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have laws against cyberstalking, which is defined by intent to harass, said Pam Greenberg, a senior fellow for the National Conference of State Legislatures. In South Carolina, it's illegal to anonymously send any lewd content without the consent of the person receiving it. Bumble, which bills itself as a feminist dating app where women make the first move, isn't the first dating app company to take on a legislative effort. Match Group, which owns multiple dating app companies, helped pursue legislation that was passed in California and Vermont, according to its website. The California legislation requires all online dating platforms to post safety tips, and Vermont's requires the platforms to notify users where they engaged with another user who was removed for fraud. Austin-based attorney J.T. Morris, who specializes in First Amendment cases, said the Texas law will face enforcement difficulties as well as legal challenges for being overly broad and vague. "It reaches things that arguably could cover images related to medical advice or moms sharing information about breastfeeding or their babies' health - things like that which certainly can't be criminalized," Morris said. Roche said Bumble understands enforcing the law will be a challenge, but the Texas legislation is intended to serve as a deterrent. <cite>WastelandCowboy posted [p:926821048] in New Texas ...

Yeah, that's gonna take some ironing out to get the nuance right.

I don't see why you would oppose of the law unless you're one of the guys sending unwanted dickpics to people. Theyre not a must or a way to start a convo. Never said that. But they do usually happen. Though, more so on hook-up sites rather than dating sites. Depending on which app, you can sometimes tell. Not to mention, with text, it usually says someone sent a pic. With email, I think you can see the attachment. Social media, though, is different. I assume its if you send to to them directly instead of just being on their page. In that case, it depends on which platform... And it happens on certain apps where people say want to see a picture and surprise people with a sick pic.

Delete accounts? View every message before they get sent? The best they could do would be to let victims report offenders and ban accounts accordingly, but with the number of dating sites out there and the relative ease of making spare accounts, that wouldn't end up doing all that much. That would also happen on a site by site basis, meaning most wouldn't want to take the revenue hit that would come with being the first one to do it (since offenders would just go to a competitor's site, so long as any existed that didn't crack down on it). Enforcing it at a legal level is a much more effective approach, since it's both a significant punishment and it would be applied to all sites. --- This is my signature.
