As you point out, this is a proposed amendment to an already existing law.

> The government said: "Plans are currently being considered by Ofcom for these kinds of images to be treated with the same severity as child sexual abuse and terrorism content, digitally marking them so that any time someone tries to repost them, they will be automatically taken down."

Unless I'm mistaken, CSAM is prohibited entirely in the UK, not just in replies to the child depicted in the abusive imagery. They explicitly say that they intend to make fictional intimate content allegedly depicting a real person to be treated the same way as CSAM.

There's nothing that suggests to that this new amendment prohibiting fictional content is going to be narrowly scoped to replies to the people allegedly being depicted.
