It is a crime to use communication to lure, harass, induce, or coerce a child to commit a lewd act, or to help a child access explicit or pornographic material for that purpose. It bans offering, sharing, publishing, or otherwise distributing explicit sexual or pornographic images of a child or adolescent, including online. This article says the law enters into force on the date it is published. This article rewrites Articles 240 and 241 to punish producing, facilitating, or selling explicit or pornographic material involving a child or adolescent. It forbids simulating a child or adolescent in explicit or pornographic scenes by altering visual media, and also forbids selling, offering, distributing, publishing, acquiring, possessing, or storing that material.
