What the document says

“The terms ``consent'', ``digital forgery'', ``identifiable individual'', ``intimate visual depiction'', and ``minor'' have the meaning given such terms in section 223(h) of the Communications Act of 1934 (47 U.S.C. 223), as added by section 2.”

To require covered platforms to remove nonconsensual intimate visual depictions, and for other purposes, Sec. 4

The Act takes five terms from the subsection section 2 inserts into the Communications Act of 1934. The paragraph's own heading names four of them, and the text of the paragraph carries a fifth, minor, that the heading does not.

What the document actually says

“The terms ``consent'', ``digital forgery'', ``identifiable individual'', ``intimate visual depiction'', and ``minor'' have the meaning given such terms in section 223(h) of the Communications Act of 1934 (47 U.S.C. 223), as added by section 2.”

That sentence, in plain words

Five words used here get their meaning from part 2.

What this is about

Part 2 wrote them into the old 1934 law. This law uses those same meanings. The heading over this bit lists only four of the five.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
