July 01, 2024 Steve Schwaller

(Undated)– Several new laws in Iowa are taking affect today (Mon. 7/1).

One criminalizes the non-consensual use of someone’s likeness in explicit images and videos, also prohibiting distribution of deep fake pornography using AI.

Another new law increases penalties for swatting, a false report to draw police response making that a class “D” felony carrying a prison sentence of up to five years.
