We do not support this amendment; although we have some concerns related to the unintended consequences of teenagers engaging in consensual image-sharing activities. Our approach to this issue has been to ensure that under-18s cannot be exposed to harsh civil penalties. We believe that it is of the utmost importance to ensure that children have adequate protection from predators who might seek to exploit their images online.
