Deepfakes: Helen Mort on image-based abuse and the gap in the law
Helen Mort talks to me about her campaign to make non consensual deepfake porn illegal. Helen launched her petition after discovering images from her private social media had been taken and used since 2017 to make deepfake porn, where AI transposes the images onto secondary graphic material. When Helen went to report this, she found there was nothing to be done. It was not illegal. Finding a gap in the law, Helen now speaks out against this abuse and calls for a change in the law. TW discusses sexual assault and revenge porn.
