AI Summary
- Expands Florida's sexual cyberharassment law (s. 784.049) to cover digitally forged intimate images, including AI-generated or computer-altered depictions of nudity that appear indistinguishable from authentic images of an identifiable individual
- Establishes that a depicted person retains a reasonable expectation of privacy and that absent affirmative consent to disseminate, that expectation remains intact, regardless of whether the image was shared with another person
- Creates enhanced penalties when the offense is committed with intent to cause physical, mental, economic, or reputational harm, or for profit: a third-degree felony for a first offense and a second-degree felony for subsequent convictions
- Authorizes aggrieved persons to pursue civil actions for injunctive relief, monetary damages of $10,000 or actual damages (whichever is greater), punitive damages, and reasonable attorney fees and costs
- Sets prosecution time limits of 5 years for misdemeanor violations and 7 years for felony violations, or 3 years from the date the victim knew or should have known of the offense; effective October 1, 2025
