In case you haven't heard, the TAKE IT DOWN Act was signed into law by President Donald J. Trump Monday afternoon! This legislation was championed by First Lady Melania Trump, who is passionate about protecting America's youth from exploitation. The first lady was joined by many victims of online exploitation by use of "deepfakes" as well as families of those tragically impacted and political members who helped push this act to the top like Senator Ted Cruz, Amy Klobuchar Rep. María Elvira Salazar, and Rep. Madeleine Dean. We are grateful for their leadership on this critical issue. This is a victory for our ongoing commitment to protect the vulnerable and create a safer online environment for everyone. Shared Hope International is proud to have endorsed this landmark legislation that will protect victims of non-consensual intimate imagery, including AI-generated "deepfakes." In recognition of this critical step forward in the fight to protect children from exploitation, Shared Hope’s Founder and President, Linda Smith, has been invited to attend the signing ceremony for this momentous occasion.
