Final answer:

Under R.S. 14.73.10, online impersonation is made illegal for anyone to intentionally impersonate another person online without their consent, with the intent to harm, intimidate, threaten, or deceive. Private investigators are not listed as exempt from this law.

Step-by-step explanation:

Online impersonation is addressed under R.S. 14.73.10 in a law that makes it illegal for a person to intentionally pretend to be another actual person, without that person's consent, with the intent to harm, intimidate, threaten, or deceive, when engaging in certain online activities. This law does not specifically exempt private investigators from its provisions. So, private investigators could potentially fall under this law if they engage in online impersonation without the consent of the person being impersonated.
