美国国会通过“撤下法案”，旨在强制科技公司对其平台上发布的Deepfake和复仇色情采取行动。该法案要求平台在接到删除请求后48小时内删除相关内容，否则联邦贸易委员会可以起诉这些平台。此外，法案还规定了对创建和分享此类图像者的惩罚，包括罚款和可能的监禁。尽管数字权利组织对此法案表示担忧，认为可能被用于审查受法律保护的言论，但包括Snapchat和Roblox在内的科技平台也表示支持。国会今年还将继续审议其他与AI和Deepfake相关的法案。

⚖️ 美国众议院以409-2的投票结果通过了“撤下法案”，该法案已获得两党支持，并得到了包括名人和第一夫人梅拉尼娅·特朗普在内的公开支持。该法案此前已在参议院获得通过。

⏰ “撤下法案”要求科技公司对未经同意的私密图像采取快速行动，平台必须在收到删除请求后的48小时内删除相关内容。如果平台不遵守这些请求，联邦贸易委员会可以起诉它们。

👮 除了针对科技平台，“撤下法案”还规定了对创建和分享此类图像的人的惩罚，包括罚款和可能的监禁。新法律将发布或威胁发布未经同意的露骨图像（包括复仇色情和人工智能生成的Deepfake图像）定为联邦犯罪。

🛡️ 数字权利组织对“撤下法案”表示担忧，认为该法案可能被武器化，以审查受法律保护的言论，并且合法内容可能被错误地标记为删除。

🤖 国会今年还将继续审议与人工智能和Deepfake相关的法案，包括2025年的《禁止伪造法案》和2025年的《内容来源保护和完整性法案》，前者旨在保护个人免受未经同意的人工智能复制声音的侵害，后者旨在保护原创作品并要求人工智能生成内容的透明度。

Congress has passed a bill that forces tech companies to take action against certain deepfakes and revenge porn posted on their platforms.

In a 409-2 vote on Monday, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the "Take It Down" Act, which has received bipartisan support. The bill also received vocal support from celebrities and First Lady Melania Trump. The bill already passed the Senate in a vote last month.

The Take It Down Act will now be sent to President Donald Trump, who is expected to sign it into law.

First introduced by Republican Senator Ted Cruz and Democratic Senator Amy Klobuchar in 2024, the Take It Down Act would require that tech companies take quick action against nonconsensual intimate imagery. Platforms would be required to remove such content within 48 hours of a takedown request. The Federal Trade Commission could then sue platforms that do not comply with such requests.

In addition to targeting tech platforms, the Take It Down Act also carves out punishments, which include fines and potential jail time, for those who create and share such imagery. The new law would make it a federal crime to publish — or even threaten to publish — explicit nonconsensual images, which would include revenge porn and deepfake imagery generated with AI.

Digital rights groups have shared their concerns regarding the Take It Down Act. Activists have said that the bill could be weaponized to censor legally protected speech, and that legal content could be inaccurately flagged for removal.

Despite these concerns, the Take It Down Act even received support from the tech platforms it seeks to police, such as Snapchat and Roblox.

Congress isn't finished addressing AI and deepfakes this year either. Both the NO FAKES Act of 2025 and Content Origin Protection and Integrity from Edited and Deepfaked Media Act of 2025 have also been introduced this session. The former seeks to protect individuals from having their voice replicated by AI without their consent, whereas the latter looks to protect original works and require transparency around AI-generated content.
