Summary

Protecting Servicemembers Online Act of 2017 This bill subjects to a court-martial under the Uniform Code of Military Justice a person who: knowingly broadcasts or distributes an identifiable visual image of another person who is at least 18 years old, who is engaged in a sexual act or exposes a private area, and who had a reasonable expectation of privacy in the depicted conduct; knows that the image was to remain private; knows that the depicted person has not consented to the broadcast or distribution; and broadcasts or distributes the image with the intent to harm, harass, intimidate, or coerce such person.
