Unsolicited Nudes Is A Crime Now In Texas

As states push to criminalize the sharing of intimate photos to get revenge on former sex partners, Texas is teaming with Bumble to crack down on people who send unsolicited nude images on dating apps and elsewhere in cyberspace.

The new Texas law banning so-called cyber flashing comes after state Rep. Morgan Meyer of Dallas collaborated with the Austin-based social and dating application company to shepherd a bill earlier this year.

The law set to take effect Saturday forbids what is often characterized as technology-enabled sexual harassment. It makes electronic transmission of sexually explicit material a Class C misdemeanor with a fine of up to $500 if the person who received it hasn't given consent.

Meyer said the law targeting unwanted images will apply to text messages, email, dating apps and social media.

A handful of other states have laws criminalizing the electronic messaging of lewd content, but most of them are linked to the sender's intentions.

Washington, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have laws against cyberstalking, which is defined by intent to harass, said Pam Greenberg, a senior fellow for the National Conference of State Legislatures. In South Carolina, it's illegal to anonymously send any lewd content without the consent of the person receiving it.

Roche said Bumble understands enforcing the law will be a challenge, but the Texas legislation is intended to serve as a deterrent.

And if you one of those people who runs nudes twitter/fb/insta/snapvhat account and live in Texas, be careful, y'all! Don't want you get arrested cos someone retweeted your post and shown up on other people's timeline who doesn't ask for it.  :gum:

As much as I think this could be good, I’m already imagining ways this can be abused. All it takes is deleting certain messages requesting nudes to make it look like they were sent unsolicited :gum:

I’m sure they’ll analyze the devices. You can’t delete anything for good in a phone.

Funny story. I was once talking to a potential daddy type hookup but he insisted on using email to send me his noodz. I told him fine but I wouldn’t send mine until I saw his and I wasn’t gonna do it over gmail. He sends them to me (I gave him one of my throwaway emails obviously) using his actual email and I found out he was lying to me about his real name because it showed up on gmail.  :ladyhaha:

Purrrrrr

it's a shame they'd barely be able to enforce it when the pp is a hairy chest and the name is 'nude daddy' and the age is fake and they might be a catfish :oops:

I would bet most police departments in rural Texas don't have the resources to handle that level of sophistication. Besides, with certain apps and services there's nothing much to analyze. Take Snapchat for instance.
