With California's new "yes means yes" law, how would you design a protocol for engaging in consensual sex, which would authenticate the parties' consents, which protected their privacy, but which couldn't be subsequently repudiated ?

This Good2Go app obviously doesn't satisfy any of these requirements, but it isn't so obvious how to design a protocol that would.
