South Dakota is replacing its current laws on non-consensual sharing of intimate images with the Uniform Civil Remedies for Unauthorized Disclosure of Intimate Images Act, a model law that provides consistent legal protections across states. This change repeals the existing provisions and establishes new rules giving people the right to sue for damages when intimate images are shared without permission.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
