Corona proposes that the penalties go from three to six years in prison, with a three -year increase in case the victim is a minor.
“To which by any digital medium, believe, manipulate, transform, reproduce or dissemin 600 days of fine, “says the initiative.
On October 1, 2024, Corona tried to take a selfie when President Claudia Sheinbaum left the congress after receiving the presidential band from Andrés Manuel López Obrador.
Sheinbaum pushed Corona’s hand, who stayed at that time wanting photography. The moment went viral and was the target of teasing and memes.
After causing controversy in networks, the deputy defended his proposal with a video posted on social networks. There he assured that he will take away from the initiative the penalties to make fun of officials.
” I want to inform you that this initiative is noble and seeks to protect vulnerable sectors of the population, so in this video I explain the action that I will take that it will be to remove from the initiative presented to public servants, ” he said.
” But I will attack who occupies her to attack girls, boys, adolescents, women, people with disabilities and older adults, “he added.
The penalties proposed by Corona also include increases in the event that memes and other materials spread massively on social networks.
The Morenista deputy says that these are forms of digital violence, so they need to be regulated. He also says that his proposal does not go against freedom of expression.
“Human dignity is above morbidity, escarnio and virality in social networks, ” he says.
” Legislating in this matter is an act of justice, of responsibility and, above all, of empathy towards thousands of people who have already seen their life affected by the irresponsible dissemination of digital content, “he adds in his proposal.
The deputy says that only in 2024, almost 19 million people over 12 years old received some type of harassment in social networks.
