B.C’.s Attorney-General Niki Sharma says the bill would create new legal rights and remedies people could use to stop the distribution of their intimate images and to seek compensation for any harms
British Columbia’s attorney-general has proposed a new bill to protect people against the sharing of their intimate images without permission, as police warn of the growing problem of so-called sextortion.
She tabled the Intimate Images Protection Act before a news conference where she will speak about the bill alongside Carol Todd, founder of the Amanda Todd Legacy Society. Many Canadians learned of the risks of sextortion through Amanda Todd, the Port Coquitlam, B.C., teenager who died by suicide at age 15 in 2012, shortly after she posted about being tormented by an online predator.
