在英国偷拍裙底风光将被定罪
"Upskirting" -- the practice of filming up someone's clothing without their permission -- is on its way to becoming a crime in England and Wales after the House of Lords passed legislation that will see offenders face up to two years in jail.
未经允许就拍别人的裙底风光，也就是所谓的upskirting，很快将在英格兰和威尔士被视为犯罪行为。在英国上议院通过法案后，偷拍裙底风光者将面临最高两年的监禁。
The new legislation was passed by the upper house of Parliament on Tuesday and is now awaiting a rubber stamp of approval of Royal Assent.
Campaigner Gina Martin, who started an online campaign to outlaw upskirting in 2017, said in a statement posted to Twitter that she was "over the moon" that the bill had passed.
"After becoming a victim and recognizing the gap in the law, I.. partnered with Ryan Whelan, of Gibson Dunn and began 18 months of exhaustive, emotional and life changing work," she wrote.
"I always thought politics was (impenetrable), but with the right help and the willpower you can do it!"
Under the new legislation, perpetrators would face up to two years in jail and the most serious offenders would be named on the sex offenders register.
