First Lady Melania Trump advocates for the Take It Down Act to combat internet abuse
First lady Melania Trump advocates for the Take It Down Act, a bill aimed at punishing internet abuse involving nonconsensual, explicit imagery. The bill would make it a federal crime to publish or threaten to publish such images, with penalties of up to three years in prison for minors and two years for adults. Social media companies would be required to remove such content within 48 hours of notice from victims.
