Are pornographic deepfakes of a woman illegal?

[hi_it_is_me123]

There are deepfakes of ariana grande or even k-pop celebrities like jennie for example. I am curious whether this is legal or not. And is it easy to make? Can you easily use it against unfamous average women?

My problem with it is that it can look very realistic which is scary

I would say it's no different than a leaked sex tape. It's probably not illegal in the act itself. But you could probably could sue the person for slander if you were able to get a judge to hear the case.

Well, seeing the current state of things, I would say at this point. . . no.

Good luck out there ladies. You are going to need it.

I think the videos being realistic looking is the point. You can beat if a famous woman is outspoken on the wrong issue, some dudes are going to create porn videos of her.

Hard to say, international law. For example, it may be illegal in their country, but not in the country it was made.
