There's a lot of fear in life! One of them should be afraid of bumping into a scum ex. What if your ex still has a secret picture of you?! That's even worse, because-TA will post your secret photos online as revenge!
This kind of behavior of spreading private photos of others for bad purposes is commonly known as "revenge porn" .
To combat this kind of behavior, Australia proposes to introduce a special law, according to the current version, can be said to be very strict: the maximum sentence for offenders up to seven years!
Such cases should be frequent, and the judge can only propose the legislation directly.
In February, Australia's Senate passed a law against revenge porn.
The law was submitted to the House of Representatives on Wednesday night, though some changes were made to the Senate version.
Two new clauses have been added, that is, two more acts have been found guilty.
In addition, some of the key elements of the House version include a maximum sentence of five years for a first offence and a maximum sentence of seven years for repeated offences. Without the consent of the company, the company can share its private photos without permission, the maximum penalty can reach 525,000 dollars, and if individuals share without authorization, the maximum fine can be up to 105,000 dollars.
The House version has also made changes to make the law more compatible with state and territorial regulations.
Andrew Wallace, a Liberal backseat member, said he welcomed the law and taught everyone a "simpler" approach: "my advice is not to take pictures of yourself or allow anyone else to take them.
It's not worth the risk, we all know it. This is a simple truth, not the advanced technology of rocket building. "
The newsletter minister Mitch Fifield said: "this law was introduced to protect victims and to convey a message. Our society cannot allow such acts without the consent of others to share their private photos. "government is committed to punishing online acts that can cause harm, pain, humiliation, or embarrassment to victims."
Minister added that the increase was intended to convey a "clear message": "the offline world is in line with the rules of conduct of the public order and applies to the online world as well."
Another change to the House version is to give eSatety Commissioner a larger authority.
If you are a victim, your complaint will be referred to this committee. The commission also has another authority: if you start expressing "consent", that is to say, allow others to share your private photos. But then you take it back, and you want to withdraw private photos that others share, so the committee has the right to demand it.
The commission's study also showed that 1/5 Australians had been victims, that is, their private photos or videos had been shared without permission.
Although taking private photos is a personal freedom, but! I filmed it, doesn't mean you have the right to share it at will! It is just as unreasonable as persuading a woman not to wear it.
Everyone be careful! Also wish all people, do not meet scum male or female in this life!
