Brooke's Law – Removal of Altered Sexual Depictions Posted Without Consent (FL SB 1400)

• Cited as "Brooke's Law," the bill amends Florida Statute 836.13 to require covered online platforms to establish a process for removing nonconsensual altered sexual depictions (e.g., deepfakes) by December 31, 2025
• Covered platforms include websites, online services, and mobile applications that primarily host user-generated content or that regularly publish, curate, or host nonconsensual altered sexual depictions
• Platforms must remove flagged content and make reasonable efforts to remove identical copies within 48 hours of receiving a valid removal request from the identifiable person or their authorized representative
• Platforms receive immunity from liability for good faith removal of material claimed to be a nonconsensual altered sexual depiction, even if the content is ultimately determined not to be unlawful
• Failure to reasonably comply with the notice and removal obligations is treated as an unfair or deceptive trade practice under Florida's consumer protection law (Chapter 501, Part II), subjecting violators to associated penalties and remedies
