The final steps for BC\u2019s innovative Intimate Images Protection Act (\u201cIIPA\u201d) are now complete and the law is set to fully come into force.<\/p>\n

On December 18, 2023 Order in Council 725 was published noting that the IIPA will come into force on January 29, 2024.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

In short this now means that anybody who has had their intimate images distributed without their consent in British Columbia, even if they have previously given consent and later revoked i<\/a>t, now have a new set of legal remedies.<\/p>\n

They can apply to various \u2018decision makers\u2019 including the online Civil Resolution Tribunal for a takedown order.\u00a0 They can further sue for non-pecuniary, aggravated and even punitive damages to those who distribute the images without their consent.\u00a0 Distributors can include search engines like Google and other powerful social media sites such as Facebook, Instagram and X. Those that do so can face serios administrative penalties of up to $100,000 for a failure to comply with a take-down order or de-indexing order under the Act.<\/p>\n

As discussed earlier this month the legislation is so broad it even covers deep fakes<\/a> (like the ones Taylor Swift was targeted with this week<\/a>).<\/p>\n
