Practice question
Two adults consent to making a private recording of a sexual act for their own use. Months later, one uploads it to a group chat without the other’s written consent to sharing. He argues that using a small chat rather than a public website and owning the original file make the upload lawful. Which is best?
- Every group chat is outside the Act
- Ownership of the file replaces consent
- The separate dissemination prohibition can apply; recording consent and a limited audience do not by themselves authorize sharing
- Only paid television broadcasts are covered
- An intimate recording becomes public property upon creation
