Senator Ted Cruz of Texas and Representative Maria Salazar are advocating for the passage of the TAKE IT DOWN Act, a bill aimed at combating revenge pornography and non-consensual explicit deepfake images. The legislation seeks to impose legal obligations on tech platforms to promptly remove such content. Cruz and Salazar held a press conference this morning to emphasize the urgency of the issue and call for action from the House of Representatives. The bill addresses the growing concerns over the misuse of technology to harm individuals and aims to protect victims of these violations.
