An intimate image would have to show someone without their 'particular attire of religious or cultural significance' and be taken 'in circumstances in which an ordinary reasonable person would reasonably expect to be afforded privacy'.

So if I'm in a female-only space where there are also muslim women, and I take a photo of my friends and some muslim woman happens to be in the background without her modesty cage, I would according to this definition be guilty of creating AND possessing " non-consensual intimate images" equal to CP.

That's not chilling at all, nope.

When I was reading the article, I was reminded of a sign Mark Thomas saw in one of his mass lone demonstrations, reading "for goodness sakes stop making up crimes".
I see I wasn't the only one thinking along those lines.
