• Mace's Deepfake Bills and Takedown Power Without Process

  Rep. Nancy Mace's deepfake and revenge-porn bills, and the RESPECT Act she built to strengthen the TAKE IT DOWN Act's takedown regime, advance a removal system that the Electronic Frontier Foundation and a twelve-group civil-liberties coalition warn has no safeguard against false or bad-faith takedown demands: content comes offline on an unverified report, within 48 hours, with no process for the person who posted it. The harm these bills target is real, but the enforcement model hands a delete button to anyone willing to file a claim. This page documents that critique and the bills behind it.

• Nancy Mace's Bills and the Rights of the Accused

  Rep. Nancy Mace has used her House Oversight chairmanship and her 'leading voice on women's issues' brand to advance a series of measures that strip protections from the accused: a resolution to publish accusations the House Ethics Committee never proved (rejected 357-65), a takedown regime that removes online content on an unverified report, and a bill narrowing what a criminal defendant may show a jury. Named legal and civil-liberties critics, and members of both parties, warn these erode due process and tilt the process against the accused. This page documents those measures first, then the full verified ledger of her women's-safety bills.
