Description:

Assembly Bill 1979 (Stats. 2024, ch. 557) creates a private cause of action against a person who
publishes private information about an individual on the internet (referred to as “doxing”). The
Civil and Small Claims Advisory Committee recommends revising one form to allow plaintiffs
in these cases to use a pseudonym, as required by law.
