Paris Hilton spoke about the sex tape that leaked in 2004, characterizing it as abuse rather than simply a scandal, as it was presented at the time. The statement was made during a speech at the Capitol regarding the DEFIANCE Act, which aims to protect victims of sexually explicit content created with artificial intelligence. The bill allows victims to take legal action against creators, distributors, and those who request such content. Hilton recalled her painful experience, emphasizing the need for increased protection of personal data and the fight against sexual abuse.
