The Executive Yuan’s “revenge” pornography bill would not do enough to protect victims and lacks provisions for the immediate removal of online content and counseling for victims, Democratic Progressive Party Legislator Fan Yun (范雲) said yesterday.
Fan told a news conference outside the Legislative Yuan in Taipei that the Cabinet’s version of a bill targeting creators of deepfake and revenge pornography would amend the Criminal Code, but contains no provisions to protect the privacy of victims or mitigate the damage to their reputations.
She said that her understanding of the legislation was based on statements made on Thursday by Executive Yuan spokesman
