Even this part is not without controversy however, with some commentators suggesting that it would cover far more than the malicious online bullying, harassment and defamation it is aimed at, citing public interest publication and also frivolous and unintentional posting of pictures which could be seen as intimate.
Others have suggested it fails to properly understand and address the issues faced by young internet users, calling for more proactive rather than purely punitive intervention, while still others contend that the "consent" requirement may not cover the likes of "revenge porn" where images may have been taken with consent but later distributed.
Revenge porn is an area specifically targeted by new and planned laws in other jurisdictions, including California.
It is the rest of Bill C-13 that most commentators have taken issue with though.
