What it requires

This is a proposed bill and binds nobody yet. If enacted as filed, it would apply to anyone in Ecuador who creates or spreads intimate or sexual content, including content made with artificial intelligence, and to digital platforms that carry it.
Do not fabricate synthetic sexual content of a person using artificial intelligence, which the bill would make an offense.
Do not disseminate a person's intimate content without consent; the bill would punish this more severely where artificial intelligence tools are used.
Be ready to remove or block unlawful content distributed on a digital platform you operate when an urgent precautionary measure requires it.

These lines are LexLint's reading of the law's text, as of 27 October 2026.

Assemblyman Mario Zambrano presented the bill to reform the Comprehensive Organic Criminal Code (COIP) and the Comprehensive Organic Law to Prevent and Eradicate Violence against Women. The bill was presented on 18 June 2026. Among the reforms proposed to the COIP is the use of artificial intelligence as an aggravating circumstance in committing crimes. The bill would make it an offense to fabricate synthetic sexual content using artificial intelligence.

It would create an autonomous offense of non-consensual dissemination of intimate content, with aggravated sanctions where artificial intelligence tools are used. It would also establish urgent precautionary measures to remove or block unlawful content distributed on digital platforms. The Comisión de Justicia y Estructura del Estado has taken up the bill for treatment.
