Stuart Fergus, the husband of James Bulger’s mother, said that after he reached out to one creator asking them to take down their video, he received a reply saying: “We do not intend to offend anyone. We only do these videos to make sure incidents will never happen again to anyone. Please continue to support and share my page to spread awareness.”
He really tried to take down his wife’s dead kid’s deepfake and got the creator responding “no offense, so like share and subscribe lel”
Using the likeness of another person without that person’s express permission should be a jailable offense.
They seem to be getting a pass on using copyrighted materials to feed these programs so I am doubting that we would get legislation protecting our own likenesses, or those of our loved ones. I bet you couldn’t even get lawmakers to understand what they would need to write into law. They (american lawmakers) all seem to be so up to speed on technology. /s
How the fuck does someone go from “I want to punish this person” to “lets make porn of a woman in his life who has nothing to do with it, that’ll show 'em!”??
Surely there are a million ways you can come up with to include whichever lawmaker in a deepfake that don’t include violating an unrelated woman?

Not until someone starts making clips of lawmakers narrating their own crimes and unethical behavior, then they’ll get it done immediately.
Not that I’m suggesting anyone do that…
I was thinking the same thing, or if a lawmakers granddaughter is AI’ed into some porn.

Because that’s a news story I have already read about. This has happened to people. No need to be so sanctimonious.
Fuck this concern troll.
