“ Minnesota House File 1606 would allow survivors to sue the owners of nudification apps for damages “ I have no idea how the law works in this case but if you could prove damages couldn’t you already sue? This is a guess but maybe this law clarifies what is considered damaging which is what enables them to prove damages where under previous definitions they couldn’t?
