BILL NUMBER:S3378
TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the penal law, in relation to prohibit-
ing the dissemination of any image of a person to an obscene internet
website, without such person's knowledge or consent
PURPOSE: Creates the crime of disseminating a known obscene image to an
Internet site without consent.
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:
Section 250.55 of the Penal Law is amended to create the crime of
dissemination of an unlawful surveillance image without the consent or
knowledge of another person to a computer network internet website. The
penalty for such crime will be a class A misdemeanor.
Establishes an effective date on the first of November after enactment
into law.
JUSTIFICATION: The technology of the Internet has evolved rapidly. This
technology has given rise to a new form of pedophile, one who has
discovered the ability to capitalize on technology for their perverse
motives. This bill provides protection from such predatory activities
which previously had not been determined to be illegal or criminal.
