An Ohio priest praised a proposed state law to criminalize the nonconsensual publishing of sexual videos or photos, known as "revenge porn."
Monsignor John Zuraw, chancellor of the Diocese of Youngstown, Ohio, told CNA that he believes the legislation would help protect the dignity of Ohio's residents.
"When we look at that idea of what porn is all about, porn promotes harmful and destructive views of the human person," said Monsignor Ziraw. "Revenge porn laws protect the dignity of the human person."
Revenge porn is when an ex-romantic partner – or a hacker – posts sexual videos or photos of a person without their consent.
