This week we saw the first prosecution of AI-based abuse under the Take It Down Act, discuss how to have friends if we’re phone free, and answer a parent question about what to do if our children look up something naughty online.

The Take it Down Act:
“Specifically, the bill prohibits the online publication of intimate visual depictions of an adult subject where publication is intended to cause or does cause harm to the subject, and where the depiction was published without the subject’s consent or, in the case of an authentic depiction, was created or obtained under circumstances where the adult had a reasonable expectation of privacy; or a minor subject where publication is intended to abuse or harass the minor or to arouse or gratify the sexual desire of any person.”
