Increased Accountability for Nonconsensual Pornography Act of 2025
This bill amends federal law to strengthen protections against nonconsensual sharing of intimate images. It expands the definition of protected material to explicitly include "an identifiable individual engaging in sexually explicit conduct," broadening who is covered under the law. The bill significantly increases civil penalties for violations, raising the maximum award from $150,000 to $500,000 per incident. These changes directly affect victims of nonconsensual pornography and those distributing such material, providing stronger legal recourse.
