Following Arizona enacting a revenge porn statute, at least one Indiana legislator, Indiana Senator Jim Merritt, has been reported to have an interest in discussing enacting a revenge porn law in Indiana.

In the interim, Indiana recognizes the torts of intrusion upon seclusion and public disclosure of private facts that may, depending on individual circumstances, provide victims of revenge porn remedies. Vargas v. Shepherd, 903 N.E.2d 1026 (Ind. Ct. App. 2009).
