The Committee on Law Enforcement Activities of the Verkhovna Rada supported draft law No. 12191, which provides for the decriminalization of pornography. About this reported People’s Deputy Yaroslav Zheleznyak.
According to the voting results, 11 deputies supported the bill, 2 abstained.
“This is exactly the DECRIMINALIZATION of porn. This is NOT the “legalization of porn” – it is legalized, and we have been collecting millions of taxes from the same OnlyFans for a couple of years. In short – we simply change Article 301 of the Criminal Code so that adults are charged for filming and distributing videos of an intimate nature were not thrown into prison for 3-5 years.
This is “decriminalization of porn”. So that people don’t get thrown in jail for hosting content (or don’t do mass “secret purchases” on webcams). And at the same time, under Article 301, you can be punished even for storing nude photos on your personal phone.”, – explained Zheleznyak.
The People’s Deputy also added that the project still needs a lot of revisions before the second reading.
“The law will still be finalized. But now we need to move with the law. This has become especially relevant due to the situation with the taxation of OnlyFans models and letters of happiness from BEB, which you heard about last week from the media“, he emphasized.
