There may well be a hasty amendment or 2 added, but the bill being pursued with such urgency by FG and by minister McEntee was outright rejected 3yrs when Labour originally authored it.This is a 3 year old bill, that was rejected by FG that is now the highest priority of the FG arm of Govt and the currently under pressure justice minister. Seems like anyone pointing a finger and asking why is this a priority now? Is enabling exploitation...Rather than asking what benefit does a minister who has partaken in what amounts to chicanery regarding the appointment of a SC judge, have to gain by suddenly becoming a feminist crusader and smiter of pornography sharers (rather than producers) has to possibly gain by such action?

What I don't like is how the media have conflated the two, making the problem appear much more severe.

“intimate image” means a visual recording of a person made by any means including a photographic, film or video recording (whether or not the image of the person has been altered in any way)— (a) (i) of his or her genital organs or anal region or her breasts (whether covered by underwear or bare), or (ii) in which the person is nude, is exposing his or her genital organs or anal region or her breasts, or (iii) in which the person is engaged in sexual activity, (b) in respect of which, if it was recorded with consent, at the time of the recording and afterwards there were circumstances that gave rise to a reasonable expectation of privacy;

I'm fine with laws against distribution of *private* sexually explicit material. Especially where it pertains to underage people. But the law would have to be drafted in such a way that me downloading a copy of "Debbie does Dallas" (or "Debbie Does Dingle") and then giving a copy to my buddy isn't classified as a sex crime under the new law. And if this new law doesn't cover "Debbie Does Dingle", I can't see how it would cover content from OnlyFans.

If such a cache exists, do you believe discord was the sole means of sharing? It's only those 500, and they never shared further? How can it be both public? And not public?

On the one hand we are expected to believe that serious harm, emotional, mental and coercive is being exerted upon the women this "boy" targeted? Yet... When they go on a solo run and identify the alleged perpetrator? Rather than actually let justice run its course? They tell his mammy? How harmful were these boys alleged crimes? Judging by the outrage generated without evidence, pretty serious. But rather than take appropriate action and report it? They let it go? Wonder how his "victims' feel about that?
The garda shared the video to a WhatsApp group that included only other gardai.[6][4] By April 7 it had spread to other internet locations and was viewed over 120,000 times.[3]

The proposed law is here for anyone who wants to read it; https://www.oireachtas.ie/en/bills/bill/2017/63 It's pretty clear that any material that was not intended for an exclusive audience is not covered by the act. So your bootleg copy of Debbie does Dallas that you bought well-worn off a mate in 3rd year for a fiver, is OK. There is a grey area in relation to material that is produced for private use; where that use is by a paying customer. But outside of that it's pretty straighforward. If you had an ongoing arrangement with a sex worker where you paid her to send you sexy photos every few days, "to keep you going", you wouldn't be permitted to send those photos to someone else, unless she had explicitly said you could. If you did, you could be prosecuted. And that's fair. But if she had a private website with galleries that were available to all of her clients, then the question of prosecution is way more difficult.
