(a) No person shall post or display publicly on the Internet, or solicit, sell, or trade on the Internet, the actual address, telephone number,
or image of a program participant with the intent to do either of the following:
(1) Incite another person to imminently use that information to commit a crime involving violence or a threat of violence against, or to
cause bodily harm to, the program participant identified in the posting or display, or any member of the program participant's household.
(2) Threaten the program participant identified in the posting or display, or any member of the program participant's household, in
a manner that places the person or persons threatened in objectively reasonable fear for their personal safety.
(b) No person shall post or display publicly on the Internet the actual address or telephone number of a program participant if that
program participant, a parent or guardian of that program participant if the program participant is a minor, or a person holding power of
attorney for the program participant if the program participant is an incapacitated adult individual, has made a written demand of that
person not to disclose the program participant's actual address or telephone number. A written demand made under this subsection shall
include a sworn statement declaring that the program participant is subject to the protection of this subchapter and describing a reasonable
fear for the safety of that program participant or any member of the program participant's household, based on a violation of subsection (a)
of this section. A written demand made under this subsection shall be effective for 3 years even if the program participant's certification
is withdrawn or canceled, or the program participant's participation is otherwise terminated, before the end of the 3-year period. This
subsection shall not apply to a person defined in § 4320(4) of Title 10.
(c) An interactive computer service or access software provider, as defined in 47 U.S.C. § 230(f), shall not be liable under this section
unless the interactive computer service or access software provider intends to abet or cause bodily harm that is likely to occur or threatens
to cause bodily harm to a program participant or any person residing at or regularly present at the same actual address.
